https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High%E2%80%93low_system
I know, in theory, how this works, but I can't quite grok how it works. Ok, so there's a chamber behind it that makes it so that the entire expansion high-low, but I don't get what makes this unique. Isn't the amount of energy at once the same?
A bullet has all the kinetic force being applied at once, which means that it gradually loses energy as it travels through the air. A rocket has the kinetic energy being applied as it travels, so it gains velocity while it moves. What changes in the high-low system that gives that weird 'thump' sound and makes it special
- Given that it was generally their best option for fighting enemies in close quarters, did M79 grenadiers usually carry their pistols with the safety off, so that they way they would not accidently leave it on in the heat of the moment if they were required to use it, leaving them vulnerable?
- How many rounds did a grenadier generally carry, and how much of each different type of grenade did they carry? For example, how many explosive, smoke, buckshot, and other types of grenades did they carry?
- How was the M79 usually assigned? Could someone volunteer for the role?
- Aside from the M79 and a pistol, how likely is it that a grenadier would carry and additional weapon? If they did, what would said weapon have most likely been?
- Edit-Assuming that they had the design, do you think the U.S. would have been able to produce and issue the M79 during WWII?
You're a Super Mutant, chilling near West Tek doing super-mutant stuff like watching over the edge of the junkyard fortress or walking with the Mutant Hounds. Inbetween yelling "Appalachia Belongs To Super Mutants" and laughing, you hear it.
wheeeeewewewewew
BOOM
You have no time to react. 3 super mutants died at the same time and in the distance, you see him. A pathetic little human about 50 feet away and he is killing everything easy peasy. More whewew and shhhump, clunk sounds and it is just you who are left. He shoots his shot at you and hits but does barely any damage. You laugh at him and he points at you.

"What?" You say.
You crumble into bits and pieces in a split second afterwards. He collects your 5 caps, a tibia, 12 5.56, and keeps moving inside to destroy the rest of the mutants.
The M79 Grenade Launcher defies the current meta and is the prime reason you should have fun and experiment. It shoots 2 shots but if you run 50 vats hit chance, you can fire from a super far distance and hit enemies. But they act differently when hit; when you swore you killed them, they take one step and literally crumble to pieces. M79 grenade launcher in VATs delays the death by like a split second and even when their health bars are barely down, it goes straight to 0. I run Demo Expert 5 and thr gun does 749 damage and thats excluding when you aim at legs in VATs which causes even more splash damage.
This gun is stupid fun to mess with, even if you're literally putting yourself at a disadvantage at every possible moment.

So I made a new character a few days ago with the intention of making him main explosives. I didnt want him to be a grenade chucker so I wanted him to use an explosive type gun. I intended for him to main the M79 grenade launcher but that gun is kinda crappy. The Missile launcher is heavy and the ammo is heavy ad well. Are there any other explosive weapons that are good? I know about getting the explosive legendary effect on a gun but I dont want to go that route. I want to use a true explosive type gun.Im lvl 25 now and if I cant find a viable solution I'll go laser weps because he has high INT
Jw what it would take to get one of these bad boys thanks π

Looking for an M79 to complement a loadout I'm working on. Full stock version only, I have no interest in the sawed off version.
Before I start rolling for a Two-shot, Last Shot M79 I want to know if it is possible or not. Thanks for your time.
Mainly looking for other weapon offers as I don't use this version anymore. Thanks!

It's a double legacy no?
Thatβs it just an m79 grenade launcher from Vietnam
