@Garand Thumb, those 40mm rounds are something else.. I'm an Infantry soldier in the British army and in Afghanistan my friend was firing 40mm granades at an enemy firing point while our platoon commander was looking through optics to see his fall of shot... Suddenly, our platoon commander dropped the optic and became very animated.. He couldn't believe what he'd just seen, I think it was the first and only time I saw a officer high five a private soldier, which if you know anything about the British army, you'll know that is a big no no and never happens.. And when we asked what had got him so animated, he said that a Taliban insurgent had popped his head over the compound wall just a brief second after "Beef" ,my friend, had fired a 40mm and the round literally smacked this Taliban in the head and turned his head into pink mist before the Talib fell back out of view.. The strange thing I found was that even though it had pulverised his head, the round didn't detonate, it seemed that despite it flying far enough to arm, the head, wrapped in a turban, wrapped in flesh wasn't hard enough to detonate the HE.. Life is stranger than fiction I suppose.

Story time. My dad was EOD/UDT in Vietnam. He was ordered to a firebase to "help remove some UXO." When he arrived the UXO was a 40mm grenade that was lodged in the head of NVA. Turns out the guy was a high ranking officer and there had been a diplomatic request by NV to get the body back but the grenade had to be removed before he could be transported. My dad talked to his CO and expressed concerns about the grenade being armed and that it might detonate when he tried to remove it. His CO said shit happenes and "they asked for the body back but they didn't say how much had to be left. Do it the safest way possible." The field expedient solution became to build a sandbag wall around the body with a rifle barrel sandwiched in aimed at the 40mm grenade. 1 round later the grenade was "disarmed " and the officers remains were able to be shipped back North in a much smaller/ lighter package.

It's all about trajectory, terminal ballistics and round consistency. There's several instances of less-than-lethal rounds causing serious injuries. The local PD has a "zero tolerance" policy for head shots, not there are riots here but they've received painful (as in powerpoint) annual training over it. For me, I was trying to put a chalk round through "the window" at the 203 range and just missed it, but the round bounced off the wall and hit the ground fairly intact. The Sgt running the range said the outer casings weren't always consistent and storage was an issue as well. That's why A-hole that freeze paintballs should be castrated.

Explosives are a much more tricky subject to address than firearms. Firearms are pretty controllable by the average user, and it's an open and shut case to give them to all citizens, automatic or not, but even trained users can be seriously injured or killed by accidental explosive detonation. And not just them. Anyone in that radius will be seriously harmed. Plus possible property damage. Are we sure we really want the retards running around these days to be able to use explosives freely? I don't know the answer. There's problems with either path. Just something to think about.

In Vietnam I heard a story of a team that had gotten into a tense situation. In times like that you might get into the throwing rocks phase, after you've gone through all your ammo. After the action was over folks going through the area found one enemy, dead, spread eagle on his back. With a 40mm smoke grenade stuck in his forehead.

[@LeoLaforestIII]

So he got smoked?

[@CandC68]

@@LeoLaforestIII An indicator of this event was that when found, the grenade was in his forehead. M-79 grenades don't arm for a certain distance from the muzzle. (I could be mis-remembering but I think it was 23 feet or spins) The design is so hitting something close to the gunner wouldn't detonate. I'm assuming this would apply to any of the "detonating" projectiles. So, if the smoke grenade had detonated, the guy's head would be a real mess. And the grenade virtually gone. But if it hadn't detonated, the evidence would be an intact, unexploded grenade in his forehead. So, the grenade was fired CLOSE combat range. I had once been hit by an M-79 fragment when the point man fired and the projectile must have hit something at just that arming range. No serious damage to me. So hats off to the designers.

[@mattmarzula]

The Marines used to use their MK19's on the rear vehicles for escalation of force for vehicles that would get within 20m of those vehicles. They would dump three to four 40mm HE rounds into the engine block. Those are traveling nearer to 950fps. It would stop the cars without detonating. In the mind of a Marine, this was prudent and caused no casualties. On the other hand, it left UXO's in play. From that point on, an O-6 or higher would have to clear fires on MK-19's without ROE being met. I could think of some better ways to employ a brigade commander. I can't think of a better way to stop a vehicle and teach a lesson while limiting loss of life.

[@Fng_1975]

I carried a 203 for about 10 years straight. Loved it! But if I remember correctly: HEDP = Traveled 15m before arming, and HE = Traveled 5m before arming. I alway preferred HE over HEDP, because it armed faster, and did more damage when it hit. Too many times HEDP had a tendency not to go off, especially in a urban environment due to the close ranges and especially after going through a window. I always carried HE over HEDP because of this, and I was always happy with the results. As for the M320, not a fan, and refused it when we got it and kept my 203. A lot us did and I think the 320 was another waste of money that we really never needed, wanted or asked for. Just like a bunch of the crap we purchased the last 20 years was.

[@sharpy4145]

That's what I was thinking. Had to follow the rifling for a certain number of rotations before hitting the primer

What's the nomenclature for regular HE? I didn't think it was very common anymore. I didn't like the m320 at first until I used it a bunch. It's main benefit is that it was designed to be standalone. Main drawback is that the sights aren't designed for standalone and break easily

Still would cause internal bleeding

[@TehCoD1KNifER15]

You’d be right, in that it would probably stop the projectile from penetrating, but I’d hazard a guess that the guy on the receiving end of that is still dead as fuck. That is a projectile the size of the head of a sledgehammer with enough force to pass clean through a person. The armor would stop that from happening, but that dudes ribs are powder, and his organs are prob bruised badly if not lacerated by the impact force, not to mention the rib bits potentially impaling rather important things like a lung or his heart. If he’s not dead, he’s absolutely out of the fight at least.
