Description.

The King Arms N79 Airsoft Grenade Launcher 40 mm is a museum‑quality replica of one of the most instantly recognisable grenade launchers in military history — the M79 “Thumper.” Built with full metal construction and real wood furniture, this launcher replicates the weight, balance, and tactile feel of the original Vietnam‑era design while giving airsofters a practical and powerful support tool for the field.

Designed to fire 40 mm MOSCART grenade shells, this single‑shot break‑action launcher turns each trigger pull into a satisfying, high‑impact field event. Although airsoft MOSCART shells do not contain explosives, they allow you to deliver payloads — from BB saturation rounds to smoke projectiles — in support roles or to cover squad movements. In gameplay, this translates to utility that goes beyond simple primary weapon engagements.

The break‑action mechanism uses a thumb‑actuated barrel release catch on top of the launcher. Rotate the catch 45 degrees to the right and the barrel breaks open, allowing easy access for reloading. Rotate it further to lock the barrel fully open. This intuitive sequence makes for fast loading, whether you’re right‑ or left‑handed, saving precious seconds in intense engagements.

King Arms has retained many of the practical design elements from the original M79. The folding trigger guard lets the launcher be used with thick gloves or cold‑weather gear without hinderance. Press the release button and fold the guard out of the way to ensure unrestricted trigger access. That said, caution is advised — in‑game drops with the trigger guard folded and the safety off can result in an unintended discharge.

Another historical feature carried over is the adjustable ladder‑style rear sight. While simple, once you familiarise yourself with it, the flip‑up ladder can be used to estimate elevation when lobbing certain grenade types over obstacles or into enemy positions. The sight’s thumb screw allows you to set elevation reliably, giving you confidence that your shot arcs where you intend it to go.

The real wood stock and handguard don’t just look authentic — they contribute to a balanced weight distribution that feels natural when shouldered. The wood’s grain and finish mirror period hardware, giving this launcher a convincing presence whether on display or in use. The thick rubber butt pad enhances comfort and shoulder stability, helping reduce force transfer and keep your aim steady during follow‑up movements.

Steel sling points mounted front and rear let you attach a two‑point sling for carry convenience. These points are tight and play‑free, meaning no annoying rattle as you move. Whether you’re advancing through woodland or transitioning between cover points in CQB, the secure sling mounts make carry practical and unobtrusive.

Internally, the barrel features mock rifling. While this doesn’t affect performance like actual rifling on live munitions, it does provide a convincing visual and physical impression as you load shells. This detail reinforces the sense of operating a real launcher, enhancing immersion during historical reenactments or themed skirmishes.

Ambidextrous controls throughout the design mean left‑handed operators aren’t at a disadvantage — a thoughtful touch that wasn’t typical in the era being represented. This ease of use, combined with the launcher’s balanced feel, makes it a practical secondary weapon that adds a tactical edge without compromising handling agility.

On the field, the N79 excels as a supportive fire platform. Use it to cover advances, deny enemy routes, suppress key positions, or simply inject unpredictability into engagements. The single‑shot mechanism encourages deliberate, tactical use, rewarding players who plan their grenades rather than spray randomly.

For history enthusiasts, re‑enactors, or themed loadouts — from Vietnam War to post‑apocalyptic kits — the King Arms N79 adds authenticity and functional flair. Its combination of build quality, realistic operation, and field utility makes it far more than just a display piece — it’s a genuine force multiplier in the right hands.
