Multiple Round Grenade Launchers
Multiple round grenade launchers are weapons platforms that fire several 40mm grenades in sequence from a single weapon without requiring a reload between shots, addressing tactical requirements for sustained area suppression and rapid multi-target engagement that single-shot launcher designs cannot match. These systems extend the operational capability of infantry and tactical units beyond the single-round-then-reload cycle inherent to break-action and underbarrel grenade launcher configurations.
The dominant design architecture in this category uses a revolving cylinder mechanism, mechanically similar to a revolver, with the cylinder holding six 40mm rounds that rotate sequentially into firing position with each trigger pull. This manually cycled mechanism requires no external power source, making it reliable and maintainable in field conditions without battery or electronic dependency. Cylinder reload using preloaded speed-loader clips containing all six rounds takes a trained operator between 15 and 30 seconds, substantially faster than loading rounds individually into the cylinder one at a time.
Effective range for high-explosive 40mm ammunition fired from multiple round launchers reaches 350 to 400 meters with point detonation fuzing systems, while area suppression and fragmentation rounds achieve comparable effective coverage at similar distances. Ammunition versatility across the 40mm low-velocity standard includes high-explosive rounds for personnel and light vehicle engagement, smoke rounds for concealment and signaling, illumination rounds for nighttime battlefield lighting, and less-lethal options including baton rounds and CS gas projectiles for crowd control applications.
In Pakistan, multiple round grenade launchers serve military infantry units requiring sustained suppressive fire capability, special operations forces conducting structure clearing operations, and law enforcement tactical teams managing riot control and high-threat response scenarios requiring rapid multi-round engagement without reload delay.
Tactical Supply Pakistan supplies multiple round grenade launchers and compatible 40mm ammunition to verified military and law enforcement organizations operating within Pakistan’s regulatory framework.
