Modern M79

While looking up random weapons I came upon this

It's a modern age version of the M79 made by a company named Defcom. I'm kind of wondering if anyone's ever tried to make one of these for airsoft.

Yeah, old news is old. they still are just as useless in airsoft as before.

Not True. I've used 40mm effectively in airsoft.

I've seen people do some amazing things with 40mm before. Don't diss it if you don't know it.

When is someone going to make the MK19 airsoft launcher? Very effective tool in anyone's arsenal.

When somebody gets really creative and figures out how to buy 800$ (at least) worth of grenades ;)

Or you could model one after an airsoft flamethrower. You would just need to figure out how to interupt the air flow so that every burst is like a 40mm going off.
