Standalone grenade launcher options

[GothicGhost]

Hello, I am looking to make a pistol loadout with a grenade launcher for extra fun.

My primary loadout is an MTW,  and I would like something slightly different.

I already have a TM 1911 and TM Glock 17, but I need a grenade launcher.

I was thinking of the ARES M320 as it looks cool and can be mounted on a gun if I wanted to later.

But I am nopt if it has any sling mounts?

My other option is the ASG GL-06 as it I like the look of that one as well.

grenade launchers make a gun feel very heavy quickly. the launchers are all pretty much the same it's the shells make them actually useful. other options are ICS GLM https://www.actionhobbies.co.uk/products/ics-glm-6-round-grenade-launcher-black/ or the ELGM https://extremeairsoft.co.uk/product/acm-eglm-scr-series-grenade-launcher-module-deluxe-black/ or cool factor M79 Blooper https://www.taiwangun.com/grenade-launcher-green-gas/m79-grenade-launcher-replica-real-wood-king-arms

This. They add significant weight to the front end and you'll certainly notice it after a while. Also, I don't know if it's still an issue, but with the old TMs the weight of a 40mm launcher on the barrel could cause the tabs holding the upper receiver down to break. 

Another option to the ones above are the pistol launchers, these should be a little easier to carry

I have a S&T M320...it's heavy & cumbersome....I never use it, but it's cool as f$ck...and I will at some point invest in TAG setup... View attachment 83130

GL + pistol is definitely interesting though I presume you've chosen munitions and know the rules of the site/s you want to play?  If you can't use TAGs or don't want to spend a fortune shooting them then all your launcher is is a big shotgun, except way less useful than even a cheap spring/pump tri-barrel and some sites have MEDs that make standard 'shower shells' a pain to employ given their range and spread.  But then again, a fun experience cracking the tube to reload and satisfying when you do tag someone.

If you want to use TAGs, get whatever you like the look of that has a tilting barrel, i.e. not the M203 or anything with a sliding barrel.  Sling mounts don't matter just buy paracord and you can easily make any sling attach to anything and some of the most popular slings used for legit guns use cordage as attachment for its' silence, versatility and strength.

I have the CYMA CM052 on a paracord lanyard.  Lightweight, easy to use and cheap.

GMR (controversial!!) have developed a pretty decent mod for 203s which allows you to use tags, longer moscarts etc.

I'm sure it's pretty heavy still compared to some of the newer GLs out there but it means it's usable with TAGs, which is great stuff.
