"Great grenade launcher. My first one, I got the 12" version in the E swagg pack. It fits well on my SCAR, though it does extend past the front of the gun by about 4", but I evened it out with a suppressor. No issues. 10/10.

"Launcher is awesome! Polymer but sturdy, it slides on to your picatinny rails with enough tension not to go anywhere.

"I got this for my ghk rifle. so far no issues. It is light in weight and looks pretty good. It fit most of my grenades except my aps grenade with its extension on it.
is it practical... ehh sort of. Use it sparingly or you will spend a ton of time reloading.

"This thing is really good! It works wonders at my local airsoft field. I highly recommend this launcher, although the way you attach it is really confusing. I thought it was for m lol when I opened it and panicked because I had picatinny. AMAZING LAUNCHER MUST BUY!

"Got this along with the long rail to go on my JG G36C. Adds a bit more weight to the front end, along with the battery, it seems to launch whatever shells you can get. Simple construction, easy to use. Attaching the launcher to the rail took a while to figure out (no instructions). Put it on your rail, open and turn the tube, you will find two allen head screws underneath. Tighten those and it pressure fits into the rail. Nice bit of kit, and gives my gun a sci-fi look and feel. Would recommend it if you're on a budget.

"Amazing compact launcher that fires everything you put in it! (Opens on the side instead of sliding forward) and mounts looks clean!

"Being a really cheap and inexpensive launcher, it isn't bad. I got it because it was cheap, looked interesting, and wasn't another boring M203. Although it's not hard or expensive to get the actual real-steel 37mm Spike's Tactical Havoc launcher, if you really really want a Havoc launcher airsoft replica, then this is the only option you have, since the Madbull version has sadly been discontinued for a while now. I bought the 12" long "metal" version from this site.
The good side is that it's pretty light weight and very solidly built. Almost the whole thing is made from a very high quality polymer. The mechanism is also extremely simple, so it's easy to operate and disassemble if something happens to break. It has all the trademarks, which is a plus in my book. However, this is one of the rare times where I wish the trademarks were painted on instead of engraved, since the real thing has its trademarks painted in white, or laser engraved. It's no big deal in the end.
As for cons, there isn't really much, other than some minor gripes. For a "metal" launcher, there isn't really that much metal other than the outer barrel. Considering I was paying an extra $10 for this version, I was expecting a full metal construction, but that wasn't the case. Slightly disappointing, but not too much of a surprise. Being someone who's more accustomed to M203s and other launchers, I also wish the box was more clear about how you're supposed to install this thing. It didn't say anywhere about the two hex screws you were supposed to tighten in order to fasten the launcher to your gun. Again, super minor gripes. You can't really go wrong with an airsoft grenade launcher.
Overall a really great thing to add on to your gun. If you're bored of M203s, or if you have a gun that's mainly all rails and it's hard to install an M203 and make it look good, then this would be the best thing for you.

"It only has a small part of the barrel made of aluminum or metal, from there everything else is plastic The construction or quality finish is a little affected by being completely plastic. If you have the opportunity to buy another model for a little more money, do it.
