	GRENADE LAUNCHER
		Grenade launchers are used as a close support weapon for infantry, intended to bridge the gap between the maximum throwing distance of a hand grenade and the closest range of supporting mortar fire.
		The M7 grenade launcher, available in 1943, was designed for use with the M1 Garand rifle as in the drawing to the left.
		The grenade cartridge produced heavy recoil so the recommended firing position was with the rifle (or carbine) butt on the ground, with the stock turned to the side, to avoid injury to the soldier or damage to the weapon.

		Although there are several armor kits available for the vehicle which afford it greater protection from small arms fire, these were not provided in great numbers to American forces in Iraq prior to the invasion.

		Gothig you are right about the mk19 being able to shoot m203 rounds, but not the reverse.
		Mk19 rounds are much higher pressure (HEDP) than m203 rounds (as the m203 has an aluminum tube).
		in my experience with the mk19, it jams too easily (especially in iraq w/ a lot of dust flying around), a little too bulky, only has 25 round belts, and is not my prefered method of engagement.
