SPECIAL FEATURES
- COMPACT - The MS-0412 is a compact weapon, making it easy to fit underneath many larger personal weapons or integrate with other devices
- MODULAR AMMUNITION - The MS-0412 is designed to use more than just 40mm impact grenades, most standard hand grenades have been tested with great success with the use of a simple cartridge propellant attachment. To adapt a grenade, on simple has to remove the adhesive side of the disk and attach it to the back of the grenade. The disc itself contains an igniting compound, propellant charge, and a durasteel back blast plate. While almost any grenade can be used with this system, the MS-0412 is most commonly used with the company's own Fireblast and Coldblast grenades, but more unusual electronet, glop, and Ion grenades can also be easily fired out
- HEAVY HITTER - The MS=0412 launches full-sized hand grenades, which tends to make it a fairly powerful weapon. It's not uncommon for a single grenade from the launcher to take out a few individuals or severely damage a light vehicle.
- ONE AT A TIME - The Crasher can only hold one in its barrel at a time, meaning that frequent use means more frequent reloads.
Underbarrel grenade launchers have been a fairly common staple of armies for many years because they allow individual soldiers a limited ability to pack a punch against heavier targets like fortifications and light vehicles without the need to carry a full-size heavy weapon. So why building a new one? Simple, make it more versatile and in house. This model does not fire only impact grenades but some hand held ones as well.
