THE AG-C/GLM* GRENADE
LAUNCHER
*Grenade Launching Module
Developed from HK's famous line of single shot 40mm launchers,
the lightweight AG-C add-on grenade launcher uses a fast
and easy side-loading breech configuration. This feature,
and the quick detachable design of the AG-C launcher provides
superior combat capability over existing M203 grenade launchers.
The AG-C has been operationally deployed with British Special
Operations forces for the past two years with excellent feedback
received.
The AG-C can be installed in seconds on the lower "six
o'clock" MIL-STD-1913 rail of the M4A1 modular rail
system using no special tools. A unique optional glass block
reflex sight provides a single aiming point reticle that
is illuminated with tritium for use at night.
A model of the AG-C equipped with an add-on buttstock is
available for stand-alone use. A ranging fire control system
for precise first round engagements at all ranges is also
being developed. A version for use on the U.S. M16A2 rifle,
termed the "AG-NL", is presently serving with the
Dutch Army, and is also currently available.
The AG-C can fire all standard low velocity 40 x 46 mm ammunition,
including HE, AP, anit-riot baton, irritant gas and illuminating
rounds. Its rifled aluminum barrel ensures a high degree
of accuracy out to ranges of 400 meters. An ambidextrous
safety lever and double action only trigger ensure easy and
safe handling.
