Which description best matches the MSGL?

Which description best matches the MSGL?

• A. Lightweight 40 mm six-shot revolver-type grenade launcher
• B. Automatic 40 mm grenade launcher with belt feed
• C. Single-shot 60 mm mortar
• D. Anti-material rifle

Answer: (A)

The key idea is recognizing the MSGL as a compact, handheld grenade launcher that uses a revolving cylinder to fire multiple rounds. It’s designed as a lightweight, six-shot system, firing 40 mm grenades from a revolver-type chamber. This distinguishes it from belt-fed automatic launchers, which would be a different design, and from mortars or rifles, which are not under-barrel grenade launchers. So the description that matches is the one describing a lightweight 40 mm six-shot revolver-type grenade launcher.
