Read above for the response to your question.

 

Wait until March during our next live fire and I'll get you a video.

 

YES!

 

Don't forget to wish me a happy birthday (3/18) haha!

 

Oh yes, it'll change your way of thinking and make you really feel bad for poor ole haj.

 

Remind me of this thread in March and I'll put your name and birthday on a round.

 

We've fired off mortars like for 4th of july...but I wanna see what it looks like when they finally hit the ground...

 

Yeah, I'll get video of them setting the base plate then I'll call rounds so you can see the impact zone. It's pretty amazing at how powerful those things are. Kill radius of almost 2 football fields from the impact point.

 

Saweet!

 

40MM mortars are freakin sweet

first time I shot one I almost pissed my pants and fell in love at the same time.
when they splash down, its freaken loud, like a stick of dynamite.

its awesome also to fire the illumination rounds because they are bright

 

To my knowledge (and I've been around this stuff for a long time), no 40mm mortar exists. You may have fired the 60mm (M224), the M203 however is a 40mm grenade but not a mortar (even though it is an indirect fire weapon). The 60mm or the 81mm is probably what you fired.

 

that is awesome!!! you know it gets boring out there, so whatever keeps em going. im with ya guys. Semper Fi ( yes i know theyre army....im not)

 

my bad, your right. the 40mm is on the M16 which converts it to an M203. The M224 is 60mm. either way they were fun and loud when landed and fired.

 

I want a mortar.....
