| | Modern Firearms - M203 40mm underbarrel grenade launcher |
 | | During the 1990s, M203 went into several modifications, such as shorter-barreled M203A2 (with 9 inch barrel, as opposed to standard 12 inch barrel), intended for shorter M4 carbines used by US SOCOM, as well as versions with MIL-STD 1913 (Picatinny rail) compatible mounts. |
 | | M203 launchers are still being used by US armed forces, and by many other armies, including those of Australia, Israel, South Korea, Philippines, Turkey and some others. |
 | | Standard sights for M203 are of ladder type, and graduated from 50 to 250 meters in 50m increments. |
