The 40mm low velocity GL1 grenade launcher is designed to be mounted on the F2000™ assault rifle in replacement of the standard or triple rail handguard.
The integration of the grenade launcher onto the F2000™ has been developed to retain outstanding ergonomics and balance as well as smooth contour of the rifle. The user can pull either the rifle or the grenade launcher trigger easily without changing hand position. This ensures easy manipulation, quick aiming and accurate shooting.
This design makes the F2000™ unique compared to traditional rifles available on the market today.
