“Now we can load it up...” - Ian disappears - *Tactical rustling ensues*

A 40mm rapid fire, revolver style grenade launcher Because sometimes you want to delete stuff in real life

"Private, shoot a warning shot" "But sir, this is an M32 rotary grenade launcher" "Ah potato, potahto, just shoot the damn thing" *bloop*

“What makes me a good Demoman?” “If I were a bad Demoman, I wouldn’t be sittin’ here, discussin it with ya, now, would I?”

i did not expect it to be accurate enough to hit those targets dead on. must be really effective at popping grenades through windows

I can't wait for the year 2119 when an AI made after Ian will be reviewing a Yeet Cannon at the Rock Island Intergalactic Auction House.

"Dear Santa, I've been a good boy this year and......"

"Use a gun, and if that don' work, use more gun." -Dell Connagher

At least it didn't break apart like in Far Cry 2

I absolutely love the disappearing from the screen, rummaging around noisily, reappearing with a couple 40mm grenades in hand

7:17 - Grenade: "I don't want to go toward the target. I'm sorry, my people need me."

"I won't be shooting grenades" Gun Jesus has forsaken me

"Then load your grenade launcher, as one does". Yes, yes, I know exactly what you mean.

The slow mo clip at the end took so long for the grenade to reach the target I thought my phone had frozen. :) Those rounds are seriously slow.

Ian, "let's load this up" * loads grenade launcher with educational intent *

"Can't" over- or under-wind it: Designed for Marines.

I think they're gonna need a new rule in 2gun: hitting a target with a 40mm will be considered a hit to all targets within five meter radius.

Something he doesn't mention is if you short crank the cylinder, meaning you don't wind it all the way to full tension in one try, you have to unwind it with the button and try again. In order for it to work you have to fully rotate the cylinder in one go. If you don't get a good grip on it you can't crank it halfway, stop, then crank it the rest of the way. And you can't crank it halfway and load 3 rounds either. It's gotta be one complete rotation, all the way around, in one go. And I'm surprised he didn't say anything about it because I know I saw him short crank it at least once.

I love how he has what is ostensibly an educational channel but it's really just us getting to watch him have fun.

For a guy who's usually really good about being a professional and hiding his excitement. It really slips out in this vid. That "gun" must be a blast to play with. No pun intended.

It is an amusing irony that one of the nicest guys on KZfaq is probably the most deadly. Great vid.

And gun jesus did smile upon the "ploop and clang" of the chalk round, but did wish for HE,... Amen to the word of gun jesus

"I ain't got time to bleed." "You got time to duck?"

"and probably to other people that they dont tell me about" aaaaaand...there goes your security clearance

Throweth the holy handgrenade, and blow thine enemy to bits, ... in thy mercy.

Sweet gun Jesus. I wasn't expecting THIS. What's next? M61 Vulcan on range?

Looking forward to the future episode where the USMC invites Ian to fire ACTUAL 40mm grenades. 🔥

I like how round number 5 when he was shooting the second time for us to see simply decided it didn't want to go near the target

There's nothing stronger than love. Except an M32 rotary grenade launcher ofcourse.

You need a speed loader for that thing!

Wow! The clip at the end really shows the incredible arc these rounds travel through. I thought it was going to go over the berm but it dropped perfectly on target. Great shooting Ian !

Had one of these issued to me in Corps. I won a contest by knocking the head off of a silhouette target at 150 yards. Got me off fire-watch for 3 nights! Great video!

"Pretty cool, huh ?" Yes, yes it is indeed.

Ah that chunk chunk sound when he fires, so iconic.

Ian: "Six rounds goes kind of fast!" Jerry Miculek: "Am I a joke to you?"

This channel never disappoints and is always interesting (sometimes fascinating!) Ian is the perfect presenter: thoughtful, clear-speaking, and a fount of knowledge about his subject matter. The fact that he also takes us along to the range to see him fire such a wide variety of weapons is icing on the cake! Thanks, Ian! Great channel!

You always get to play with the coolest toys! I'm jealous.

Can we get an episode on all the different ammo types for these grenade launchers?

Favorite part of this video: Ian's unloading "boop". Someone needs to put that on loop. Who said Gun Jesus doesn't have a humorous side lol.

I fam fired an early model of this at Camp Lejeune in late 2004. When the Milkor guy did the demo, he fired six HE rounds at a high angle, reloaded and fired six more at a low angle. All twelve rounds landed on the target within about five seconds of each other. Impressive!

Ian Looking like Sarah Connor for his loyal subjects today.

If we are already in the realm of big guns, is there a possibility to get your hands on a KS23?

The anticipation on that last shot nearly killed me.

This video feels like I'm watching my cool uncle explain guns to me. When Ian says "I can actually watch the rounds in flight, that's really cool. Y'wanna see?" and then the angle changes, it's genuinely heartwarming.

I still wouldn't like to get hit with even a prac round.. My only experience with a Grenade Launcher was with the M79 "Wombat Gun".. *Bloop*

It's awesome when manufacturers themselves invite Ian out. I love his videos because he reviews the operation, engineering, and history of a weapon and doesn't try to be macho about it. Keep up the good work Ian! He is truly the gun jesus of our time. Praise be!

Ian rustling around in the chalk round box is unintentional ASMR. Its nice.

Thank you for talking about the site looking at the barrel when set at max range! I've been wanting to know the deal with that for so long.

I was worried from how Ian originally explained how to load this thing that it was going to be another Cobray Streetsweeper incident. Thank god it is actually less tedious than that hunk of junk.

I'm a simple man. When I see a weapons demonstration, I click. About to get a lesson from gun Jesus

That slow motion arc at the end was amazing to see! Thank you for another interesting firearms related video!

The slow-mo shot of the projectile coming out of the barrel is awesome!

Imagine a speedloader for that behemoth. It'd be impractical but awesome.

You can tell how sad he is when he says “unfortunately we will not be shooting grenades today”

"What makes me a good Demoman? If I were a bad Demoman, I wouldn't be sittin' here discussin' it with ya, now would I!?"

The anticipation and relief of the last slo-mo shot was wonderfully rewarding!!

As a lefty myself I appreciate your pain in adjusting to all those goofy right handed weapons.

Is this the firearm of choice for Desert Brutality 2020?

I love how you show us the weapons then shoot them in a later video when I see a gun (or launcher in this case) that I like I can look forward to seeing it in action with you

That “eyes transposing the sights allowing you to see far downrange” is the coolest shit I’ve ever heard

I forgot that of course there would be training blue grenades, I was looking forward to some boom boom boom for this video. Enjoyed seeing the grenades fly nonetheless.

The company I work for makes the shell casings and grenade bodies for those. Pretty badass

Thank you again Ian for another wonderfully objectively educational, high quality, low latency, professionally produced video ! :-)

love that chunky sound it makes when it fires

"A little more difficult for me as a lefty than for normal right handed person." So sad to see Ian suffering from internalised dexterity. Southpaws unite!

"Shooting the Milkor M32 40mm Grenade Launcher" YOU WHAT!?!

The thud that it makes when it hits the berm is just amazing for some reason

Ian - your channel is awesome. You know your stuff man. Thank you for the great content!

Awesome video as allways. This made my day.

7:16 I see what you mean with „inconsistent“. :D

It's cool to see you have so much fun

1:24 The sound of a nice big box of shells. Luv it.

During the slow motion part at the end in my head I hear Lionel Richie Hello playing.

That was the fastest click in the West for me

The high explosive dual purpose low velocity 40mm leaves a highly satisfying white flash upon impact on a steel truck silhouette

That last slowmo shot was really neat.

7:18 looks like a premature split in the chalk round, good thing it wasn't live...

"Patterson fire a warning shot!" P: "Sir, this is an M32 rotary-" "Ah, potato potato, FIRE A WARNING SHOT!" * THUMP *

I'm honestly amazed that this thing came out of my country and is so well renowned.

I've gotta say, that's a pretty cool piece of kit!

@7:32 "...And Gun Jesus said unto him, 'verily I say unto thee... boop!'"

I had wondered why the training round was nicknamed "cheetos". That ultra slo-mo at the end was awesome. Like waiting for a bus waiting for the round to hit the target.

This is one of my favorite gun, good concept, exceptional payload.

That looked like soooo much fun. Definitely right up there with shooting LMGS.

Marine corps got it right, I feel like we got screwed in the Army not adopting it.

My kid saw me watching this and asked, "Is that Gun Jesus playing Splatoon?"

Cool stuff, Ian!

My lecturer at uni helped with the barrel of that thing: Dr. Danie Els: 1983 - 1986: Armscor, Small Arms Division Research and Development Engineer Member of a team that did the design, development and qualification of a multi shot 40mm grenade launcher for the SADF Infantry.

“Ugh, got the War Machine from the box AGAIN!”

Someone ought to invent moonclips for the thing.

It's fun shooting the MK19 since you can see every single round flying downrange one after the other. Easy to pick up when the wind is carrying them off course

This guy must LOVE his job.

This thing is incredibly interesting. Does it heat up at all?

7:17 : later boys i'm out of here

Plinking targets with this thing looks seriously fun.

And at that particular moment when I noticed them blue tips - I just knew something was going to be missed in this video.. bummer... But still, a pretty cool video.

"Normal, err, right handed people" Armchair psychologists would call that an unconscious consideration of oneself as abnormal. **Adjusts armchair**

Woo Hoo. How do I sign up to work with Ian!

We won't talk about the round at 7:16 that decided to break earth's orbit, for the manufacturer's sake 😂

Never heard of OEG sights. Had to look 'em up. Fascinating idea, and one I definitely want to try.
