Description.

The King Arms N79 Airsoft MOSCART Grenade Launcher (short “Pirate Gun”) is a faithful and functional recreation of the iconic Vietnam‑era M79 grenade launcher, engineered for players who want authentic feel, historical accuracy, and real firepower potential in their loadout. Built with full metal construction and real wood furniture, this launcher delivers the tactile quality and weight distribution expected from a genuine vintage combat tool — without the dangers of live ordnance.

Using 40 mm MOSCART grenade shells, the N79 adds a unique tactical dimension to your gameplay. Each trigger pull launches a single shell, turning the launcher into a dramatic support platform that can cover approaches, disrupt enemy positions, or simply add psychological weight to your field presence. While it doesn’t fire explosive rounds, the MOSCART shells allow you to employ a variety of payloads — from BB sweeps to smoke fillers — tailored to your tactical approach.

The short “Pirate Gun” profile draws directly from MACV‑SOG configurations seen in the Vietnam War. This compact variant was favoured for its ease of carry and manoeuvrability in jungle operations and special forces tasks. On the field, the reduced overall length makes rapid shoulder transitions and movement through tight cover less cumbersome — a key advantage during dynamic CQB or field scenarios.

Construction quality is a clear strength here. With a full metal body and real wood stock and handguard, the launcher feels substantial yet well‑balanced in hand. The natural wood grain and authentic stain replicate the look and texture of period hardware, contributing to historical loadouts like Vietnam MACV‑SOG, USMC retro kits, or even themed milsim scenarios. A gamer rocking tiger stripe or boonie hat will appreciate how convincingly this launcher completes a vintage build.

Operational mechanics are straightforward and user‑friendly. The break‑action design opens by actuating the spring‑loaded barrel release catch on top. Rotating the catch 45 degrees to the right breaks the barrel open, and rotating 90 degrees locks it fully open for loading. This intuitive action is accessible to both right‑ and left‑handed shooters, allowing quick reloading without awkward manipulation — a practical advantage when shells matter in ongoing engagements.

Controls are fully ambidextrous, meaning left‑handed players won’t be forced into uncomfortable handling positions. The folding trigger guard is another practical detail: it swings out of the way to accommodate thick gloves or cold weather gear, preventing trigger access restrictions when you need rapid fire. This feature, while a nod to thoughtful design, also requires caution in game — if dropped with the trigger guard folded and safety off, the launcher can discharge its loaded shell.

The safety itself sits atop the stock tang just behind the barrel catch. When engaged, it locks the trigger and prevents accidental discharge — a necessary safeguard given the single‑shot nature of the MOSCART launcher. This added protection gives you confidence to carry the launcher active on your rig without constant worry of unintended firing.

A standout modern convenience is the steel QD sling point with its pre‑installed swivel at the base of the grip. Though not historically accurate to the original M79, this addition dramatically increases carry flexibility. With a single‑point sling attached, you can let the launcher hang securely at your side between engagements without fumbling for repositioning, saving precious seconds in the heat of play.

Internally, the barrel features mock rifling which doesn’t affect MOSCART payload accuracy like true metallic rifling would in live ordnance, but it does provide a convincing loading and firing feedback loop. This attention to internal detail enhances the sensation of handling a polished, functional launch platform rather than a hollow prop.

In terms of tactical utility, the N79 shines as a secondary weapon that broadens your role on the field. While primary rifles dominate direct engagements, the MOSCART launcher lets you saturate target zones, suppress opponents behind cover, or create diversions that shift engagement priorities. This capability turns a static defense into a dynamic threat range extension without adding undue weight or complexity to your loadout.

For players building historically themed loadouts, the King Arms N79 “Pirate Gun” delivers both authenticity and playable functionality. It bridges the gap between collector’s realism and active field utility, making it a unique tool for experienced airsofters and history buffs alike.
