Put this little guy together last week.

Just out of curiosity... What do you guys use these for?

The good 40mm can't be had correct? So that leaves flares, smoke, and shotgun adapters? Bean bags?

Nope, these are real deal 40mm greanade launchers (well mine is anyway). I shoot flair rounds, chalk, maybe some smoke or anything that is available via the Internet or that I can reload myself. They are pretty fun.

Este means "the good 40mm ROUNDS".

launchers are fun with chalk. Don't know if i'd go through the NFA for it, but still fun.

I looked into it, you just need an explosives license and storage bunker that's up to ATF specs. Now getting a company that will sell live 40mm HE rounds to you unless you have a legit reason is the hard part.

I do know other ways but they're way on the wrong side of legal and I wouldn't advise it. Haha.

Do you guy's use Grog's recipes for roll your own 40mm rounds? How hard is it to make your own legal 40mm rounds?

I buy once fires plastic shells and te new zink pushers with blue nose cones then load them with line chalk. Not too hard, after the first 10-15 or so you kinda get a rhythm and it goes faster. I'm goin to pin up a .22 subcal device and some 22 tracers which I hear is a pretty neat looking show at dusk or night time.

The NFA process isn't any different for the 203s than a suppressor. You can buy an already registered 203 receiver from LMT or find one than is still a title 1 just like any other gun. After you get it send out a form 1 and wait..... Few months later and you can put the 40mm barrel on it.

I think Jason is well aware of the process.

His comment was that (and I agree) that spending $200 to launch chalk is questionable for some. Now, if you have a reason to, great. I just don't think that I do.

Are 40mm tear gas and 40mm buckshot legal ?

[sardo67]

tear gas and buckshot are legal, go search "40mm" on gunbroker and you'll find some pretty neat stuff as well as odd-ball things. its a little more expensive and not as practical as suppressors but way fun.

i also have this problem where i wander around the internet and impulse buy NFA stuff..... ya i know it's bad sometimes but i figure i need at least one of each. now i have one SBR and a can but soon to have a total of.... 2 SBR, 4 Cans, 1 MG, 1 DD, and after all of that i'll probably pick up an AOW just to have one of everything. also have plans to get 3 more suppressors mostly for pistols.

I understand of course.

give me legal HE rounds and it's worth it.

Teargas, buckshot and flares, I'm not interested. Chalk rounds are as fun as a pump action paintball gun after a few. IMHO, YMMV, Etc...

Don't get me wrong, I'd probably get a 40mm just for the occasional shits and giggles IF they were not NFA.

ETA- I also agree that you can buy whatever NFA tickles your fancy, glad you're collecting.

Just out of curiosity... What do you guys use these for?

Smoke, flare, chalk, 14.5mm artillery simulators, buckshot, flechette, .22 beehives, 12 ga, 20ga, pyrotechnic, etc..

I would imagine that some gents one of them so that in the event that things get crazy, and they came across a supply of 40mm HEDP ... they would have a safe, sighted-in method with which to deploy said 40mm HEDP. Furthermore, this method would be one they had practiced with and became proficient with.
