So I don't have to keep responding to "this guy knows nasa uses the metric system right?" ...... Yes they do. they adopted it in 1992 and coincidentally haven't put a person on the moon since. So my statement of "metric countries can't put a man on the moon" 100% accurate. Also before you say "ya but they still used metric for the calculations in the Apollo missions" No they didn't, even the UK metric association reluctantly admits on their website "the vital calculations for the Apollo missions were done in imperial"
Merica
We should not forget the 1999 loss of the Mars Climate Orbiter ($125 million) because the ACS (Altitude Control System) used Imperial but some lunatic Brit installed it with software that used Metric.
I'm surprised NASA didn't send an invoice to the UK for $125 million.
FIDO Brother! JEITCTAF! (Do they even still say fuck it and drive on and joke em if they can’t take a fuck in the modern military?)
100% agree that metric was the wrong way to go, but, the Apollo Guidance Computer did use metric/si internally for its calculations. But it converted to imperial/USC units when it displayed data on the DSKY, and for the telemetric data that was being collected.
Also interesting factoid for those who are interested, the Apollo 11 craft had 4 KBs of RAM, and a 32KB hard disk to store data on, they are still crunching some of those numbers today because they decided to use both imperial and Si in data gathering.
NFT (not f**king there)
Imagine growing up on western movies, being drafted, and being handed a big break action shotgun that can delete area codes
I thought that was the MLRS
The Army called it the "grid square remover" because the effective burst area was around 1000m²
It was like CHRISTMAS! Plus Independence Day and Halloween all wrapped up in a musket color coordinated with my hardware store hatchet. 😎
Saw a story about how some Marines in Vietnam fired a canister shell designed to punch thru light vehicles and dense foliage, at a group of VC about 25yd away, and they literally disappeared into a red mist.
My personal favorite toy. 🇺🇸
@@mikefarmer4748 Its a nice toy, but the 6 round revolver style grenade launcher is my favorite, that or the Mk 19.
In the words of the best grenade man ever:
“Oh they’re going to have to glue you back together, in hell.”
LOL
I understood that
In hell you get used as lube
Ka-boom! I love him so much!

For reference
My favorite part about the Bloop Tube has to be all the non-grenade rounds. They were like "hey it's basically a big shotgun, so lets just stuff some random shit in there" You know, for when you can't get see the enemy through the jungle. So you turn it into a very spicy game of darts instead.
Don't like the big boomers?
How about we play darts instead?
Hmm no? Oh I know portable flamethrower! No?
Hmm oh I know let's kick a beehive!
I loves me some flechettes.
One of my college professors was a Vietnam vet who was the bloop gunner. Said the beehive rounds were a crime against flesh.
Nothing says “fuck you!” like 500 steel darts flying in your general direction.
There was no way to stop these things in the hands of an American infantryman.
We renamed the shooter/detonator we use at work the “Grim Yeeter” because well…. Awesomeness
The fuck do you do for a living that involves detonators??
@@cleverusername9369 Probably miners, miners and quarries have a long history with explosives
@@cleverusername9369 I’m in the explosives industry. As Nick would put it, our job is to “unalive” parts of Mother Nature.
@@RabidPancakeDisorder we are not miners but you are correct in their wizardry with being able to work with explosives, historically speaking of course.
@@sr3063 so then what the fuck are you doing that involves blowing shit up?
The other advantage of this thing was how many durn grenades they designed for it. Bunch of guys over there? Basic frag round. Enemy too close for frag? Buckshot round, with 3x the pellets of a 12g shell. Night attack? Illumination rounds are brighter and burn longer than a standard flare gun. Need way more boom than the frag round? Launch a smoke shell and tell the flyboys to aim for it.
So many wonderful flavors
Because of the break action on the gun, there's no limit to how long the shells can be. Theoretically it can be sticking out of the fucking muzzle.
@@cousinzeke4888 Idk, that's getting into mortar territory.
Well, there is an issue with the buckshot. Because of the pressure system, you had to be very very close for it to be effective. Because even with the high amount of pellets, they are shooting around 800 900 ft./s because of the high low pressure system
@@micahdadbeh5955 if they're too far for buckshot, they're far enough for a frag grenade. And once they develop the 203, you're in like Flynn.

@@the_fat_electrician awesome!
Came in to say this. Glad I wasn't the only one thinking it.
@@alexknuth1698 Same lol
Can confirm. As one of the last 1st Cav troopers to qualify on the M79 back in the early 1990's-2000's I can confirm the weapon features an "everything sanitizer" munition option. Just don't tell Geneva I carried one of those to Iraq back in '03. And If they're reading this...It was just for shooting up illumination flares I swear.
Ah, the good old stand by flechette round, even kills the mosquitoes.

I got to fire one on my deployment in Iraq in 06
"It's Never A Warcrime The First Time"
HOW COULD YOU NOT MENTION THE FLECHETTE AND SHOTGUN ROUNDS?!
During the Vietnam war, many firefights occurred within 15 meters, too close for the M79's grenades to arm. Uncle Sam's solution was to make shotgun ammo for it.
A double 0' twelve guage shotgun shell contains nine .32 caliber pellets and is 19mm in diameter.
Double the diameter means something like eight times the volume.
I am having trouble trouble finding source material, but the 40mm fires twenty pellets weighing 24 grams each. I can't find a diameter, but thats 370 grains. That makes it twice the weight of a standard 7.62 bullet, half the weight of a .50cal.
Twenty of them. Going downrange at 885 feet per second...
Huh... that's like getting hit with 20rds of 4570government all at once lol God damn
When 40 mm grenade launchers were first developed, the weapon was to be the primary weapon of the infantryman carrying it. It was quickly found that in most engagements, while the grenadier gave the squad a decided force multiplier, they were also decidedly exposed if presented with an enemy within the arming distance of most high explosive rounds. Rounds with shorter arming distances presented significant danger to the shooters if used at those ranges. Prior to development of grenade launchers attached to standard infantry rifles, development commenced on non-explosive cartridges to allow those armed with grenade launchers to engage targets at shorter ranges safely.
Similar rounds have also been developed for weapons chambering the higher velocity 40x53mm cartridge as well.
These anti-personnel rounds fall primarily into what is considered the "canister" category.
40×46mm types include the M576 series.
The M576 contains twenty 20-grain (1.30-gram) metal pellets.[6][7] The XM576/XM576E1 was standardized to become the M576. Another test variant, the XM576E2, which had twenty-seven 20-grain (1.30-gram) metal pellets without a sabot within the shot cup was deemed to spread too quickly for effective use.
The only current 40×53mm type is the M1001 and is a canister round filled with 115 17-grain 2.0-inch long flechettes. During the late 1960s, Nortronics was developing the XM678. References have listed different projectile loads ranging from thirty-two 0.24-inch carbide pellets up to fifty-four 30-grain (1.94-gram) tungsten pellets.
I head double 0' buck was 9 .38 pellets.
t huMBANG, you're red mist. By God, if the m60 wasn't a people eater the grenade laucher certainly was.
Once again blurring the line between cover and concealment.
The designers probably had this thought process
“Cannons are a thing right? What if we, *smacks lips* made it smaller and shoots out angry hot potatoes”
Someone lost at hot potato and this started their villain origin story, which flipped midway to a redeemed hero story.
Gotta love a simplistic design that just friggin works. No bells. No whistles. Just *thoomp* and then meat confetti.

Best Grenadier I ever had in my fire team, was a little short shit Latino. Before going off to the Southeast Asia War Games, when at the range, sucker took out a Goose on the wing. About a 200 yard shot. Not much left of the Goose though. Not sure why it changed but, back then the grenade armed in about 12 feet, rather then 30 yards. No! We never put them on pottery wheels and spun them, long enough to arm. Then casually leave them around for the zipperheads to pick up. Never did it, no one saw me, theres no evidence, I have an alibi, so I'm innocent. Just heard it from a guy, who new a fellow, who's brother said it happened.
Ever hear of pulling the pin on an M67 and sliding it into a pint mason jar with the lever intact? Rumor has it they can “fall” out of a helo at 1500ft. And make it all the way to the ground.
@@jmsmeier1113 Works with a used LAWW tube also.. Bit of a technique to it, nut fun can be had.
It's not a war crime if there's no evidence.......
In the Australian Army this is lovingly referred to as the “Wombat Gun.”
Because 5.56 bounces off and 7.62 just makes them angry. Wombats are made out of armour plate and old carpet. Wombat shit is cubes.
God bless the Aussies. The only people to make Texans look well adjusted
@@geraldmyrick6814 Texans seem pretty awesome to me. 🤷🏻♂️
@@geraldmyrick6814 I take exception to that. Speaking as a Texan, we are NOT well adjusted. Nobody can make us well adjusted.
@@engmed4400>>> Never change, Texas, never change...😉
Then in Vietnam we thought to ourselves " this isn't deadly enough. Let's turn it into a pump action shotgun."
They also made it shoot incinerator rounds because America believed in burning everything in fire
I can just imagine the grunts going “grenade launcher goes thump” after destroying a enemy emplacement with it.
I feel like the airforce saw this and went:
.... that. I want that. On a plane. But faster.

@@trailblazer632 I cannot assure you that this wasn't the whole tought process behind it, chances are very high it was
My favorite fact about the M79 is that DEVGRU reportedly uses the Pirate Gun to this day. I find it awesome that something my great uncles used are still turning insurgents to everywhere-surgents to this day.
I hear alot of sof units are going back to it the modern ones are cool they have an FDE magpul looking furniture
@@the_fat_electrician I just looked up a picture, they look sweet.
Also heard the *pump action* 'China Lake' M79 is possibly making a comeback.
Turning insurgents everywhere into everywhere insurgents.
Some special forces types will still opt to take one with them.

Love it. The South Africans purchased a ton of them and used them to fight the Angolans and Cubans. They affectionately called it Snot-neus or "The Snot Nose". They used it similar to US forces and it acted as short range mortars for the SADF troopers out on long patrols in the bush during their Border War.

@@randorookie8587 I do believe its because TFE was a medic in his perticular branch of the military.
Back in 71 we had these in the 82nd ABN. and called them Bloop Tubes. It was common for the grenadiers to pull a cleaning brush through the front of the barrel (blocking it), then break the gun open and fill the tube with poggie bait. We still had some M-79s as late as the early 90s in the reserved. Absolutely loved the damn things.🍀
I took one duck hunting December 23, 1968 with 3 rounds of double O buck. But I couldn't flush the ducks out of the reeds on the lake. Apparently Vietnamese ducks are very smart.

Spikes did a run of 37mm "flair" launchers in this pattern, too bad they did so few they go for 3-5x what they originally cost.
Yeah for barely a few hundred more you can just buy a legit 40mm launcher, it's not worth it for the spikes
ik I tried to buy 1 lol
@@waffles4322 + tax stamp & regulations. And who’s actually gonna shoot the real 40mmHE? That’s a tax stamp for every boom. So why would you get the 40 > 37mm?
@@BombproofCraftsman Chalk rounds provide almost all the fun of a 40mm he but you don't need a tax stamp to buy them since they're "training" ammunition.
Don't think for a second that the "training" designation means it's not dangerous either. That's probably about half a pound of chalk being yeeted with enough force to carry it 400 yards.
So even if you get hit by the training ammo, Uncle Sam will be able to chalk you up as another enemy casualty. And yes, that pun was fully intentional, it's such an easy connection to make that I just couldn't not do it.
Oh and from those training rounds it's not a far leap to riot control rounds, like rubber balls or even tear gas. Police departments use those out of something like this quite frequently. The rubber balls do have a reduced powder charge compared to a 40mm HE round, so if it hits you it's gonna hurt quite a bit, and it might break your nose, but if you're over 50 yards away you shouldn't suffer any life-altering injury. Inside 50 yards procedure was to bounce it off the ground to take some of the velocity out of it, but this tactic has seen limited success, so most police departments have switched to tasers or pepper balls within the minimum safe range of those.
@@BombproofCraftsman 40mm chalk rounds are considered anti personal by the bafte. They don’t require a stamp for each round but anyway out of a 37mm that is anti-p they consider it a DD. So if you wanna fire chalks you need registered DD.
I'm so glad you made my suggestion of the quack bang grenade a reality!

Love this thing, as a private i luged it around. Sights were...guess-dum-it, safety was ..not ( in training we were informed not to carry it with a round in because " whats left of your patrol will be pissed when da fucker goes off")
We carred them on "peace enforcement" missions by calling the bloop a gass-gun. Ya sure, we only shoot smoke (white phosphorus) and door breacer (H.E.) rounds boss...sureeee. safety first

used to play airsoft a decade or better ago and bought an M79 to mess around with. It turned out to be the most fun airsoft I bought. It'll shoot anything as long as it makes a seal over the shell.

I was a Marine grunt in the 2nd battalion, 5th Marine regiment 1967 - 1968. I was a blooper man for the first 2 months I was there.

"Carried a big tube of everything sanitizer." You're not wrong, this is needed to sanitize the soul before sending it to the deity of their choosing.
My man's moving up in the world: he's got a desk with a stand microphone, and now an intro to his videos.
When you make it to a million subscribers you should show a short video of a million quackbangs being made with the odd spudbang thrown in.
During Vietnam when the US army was really using these and before they ended up making the M203, they actually made something to my knowledge only known as the “China lake” grenade launcher, which was the M79 except pump action with an internal magazine instead of break action
Considering the timeline for the creation of the China Lake I guess it didn't take long for someone to go "this is cool and all, but what if we made it pump-action?"
FURTHERMORE, there are aftermarket 40mm "Beehive" grenades which, when fired, shoot 15 rounds of .22 Long Rifle. I believe there's also ones that shoot pellets like a traditional shotgun, but you can't quote me on that.
Also, MARSOC video when big guy? Take care.
Can confirm, a friend of mine had a beehive for his M203
I think you should do a video of the destroyers that ran down the Japanese fleet at Leyte gulf and punched above their weight defending the landing forces. Truly a story for the ages.
Taffy 3 FTW
First off, I love the intro. Second imagine being a Vietnamese dude hiding in the bushes. Then you hear a shotgun blast and think *thank god, he miss-* BOOOM.
LOL
It doesn't even sound like a shotgun. They aren't loud at all, doing qualifications with these and the M203 UGL they issued us chalk rounds. We wore ear plugs but the range guy told us they weren't required.
Sorry, I’m only 14. Thank you for this information, I was going off what the fat electrician had mentioned.
@@WyattThePilotYT ah, I see!
I qualified with the M203 40mm grenade launcher, attached to my issued M16A1, back in 1998-99.

Couple of thoughts. You may have made up Uncle Sam's Blunderbuss, but I motion the chat that we should formally adopt that as an accepted nickname for the M79. Do I have a second?
Second, love the new Quackbang Grenade animation at the beginning.

My spotter was an absolute god with the m203. One dark night I told him to put a parachute flare over the top of a t62 tank. He of course nailed it. The flare lights up directly over the tank. Then burns through the lines holding the parachute, and the flare drops right into the open commander's hatch. I guess the moto death before dismount only applies to American DATS because I've never seen tankers move that fast in my life.

And don't forget its latest child, the M320. It returned to an aluminum barrel and has a detachable PDW style stock. And just like its granddaddy it is often used like a pistol. It may not be grunt proof, but us 91F's have no trouble fixing it.
Firm believer that the 320 was a waste of money and resources. 203 is the perfect single shot design imo.
Leaving a comment FOR THE ALGORITHM
Edit: grenade launchers are the epitome of "hey you, yeah you over there. F**k you."

this video was awesome! how do I know 4 minutes before it airs? because they ALL ARE!!!
We still use these to this day, carried one on my last deployment. Allowed us to ruck it into missions but not have a 203 hanging off a 10" barrel. The times we used them were awesome!!! Loved the video man
1. I dig the opening animation.
2. The Yamato line made me spit out my coffee.
3. Funny Hat Gang t-shirts for us Cavalrymen.
Love your work. Always brings a smile to my face when I need it.
I heard that they were being made for 300 dollars a pop and all I could think is "It cost that much?" It's a trigger assembly, an aluminum pipe and a stock.
you do realize that the government overpays for EVERYTHING right, so $300 is a decent price for a weapon bought by the government

I was in a National Guard Unit, we still had M2 Grease Guns and the M79. I absolutely loathed the 203. I could shoot an M79 with a very high degress of accuracy. My scout unit was one of the last units to carry them and I actually volunteered to carry it. Awesome weapon. Simple Easy and Effective. No wonder they took them out of service...

The beauty of the M79/M209 is their near silence when fired. A soft "ploop" when the trigger is pulled is all you hear if you're within 50 yards or so.

Wasn't this the grenade launcher that the navy seals managed to break by simply just closing it so damn hard that they actually warped the launcher?
Nah, theirs was the pump action version that they slam fired so hard it broke the aluminum parts of the trigger mechanism.
@@kmodo93 Ehh i almost had it. I just remembered something about the seals, this weapon and the fact that they are just stupid strong
@@dcsaustin2 That was the China Lake grenade launcher
My ship had a F...ing MACHINE GUN VERSION. Quite literally known aboard as "Thump Thump Boom" Never had so much fun in all my life as the qual for that!!!

One of your best man! Keep ‘em coming please!
Loving the new intro quackbang! Also seeing the shortened version of the blooper makes me want to chain 2 together and dual wield them like some explosive nunchucks.
“Amish incindeary grenades” 😂🤣🤣🤣
😄 🤣
In both Ghost Recon Wildlands and Breakpoint I've gotten good enough with grenade launchers to consistently hit the tail roter of the helicopters in game do to how low and slow they patrol. If it's slow enough to hit with a bloop gun I'm going to bloop it.
Shit I still use it in my writing. Every Armory Scene will always have one or if it's mad max vehicular type shit.
I do the same with the 'nade launcher against the police choppers in gta online.😂
I would buy your definition of an nft shirt, that had me howling with laughter. My wife asked me what the fuq happened now as im crying on the floor, all I could get out was quack- and immediately she knew I was talking about you. Love your content man
haha 😄 🤣
Watched every video you made and posted on TH-cam or your Facebook. You have the best content and military stuff 💯💯💯
roy benavidez would make a great vid dude was a legend
Can the Bloop tube be used as a shirt launcher? Asking for a friend…
probably
Yeah and it would shoot FRICKING wood with spikes on it and boom officially called the "cheap to kill gun"
Knowledge + wit = great content 👍

The quackbang intro was a nice touch. Keep up the good work!
Grenade launchers are quite possibly the scariest infantry weapon ever
Could you imagine being the enemy and after emptying your clip you all reload. And while doing that you just hear **FUMP FUMP FUMP FUMP FUMP FUMP FUMP** and then you look up and the skies are filled with tiny, fuming black dots. And before you even know what the hell is happening your general area is turned into a giant crusty earth casserole
with meat sauce
As a gamer I have pissed off a lot of people in games like call of duty with how much I use the good old noob tube I use it more then the gun it's attached to become there's nothing like makeing people confetti
anatomical confetti
@Ban this youtube a fellow salt collecter I see my hole set up on those game was just built to blow you up

Been enjoying your content for a long and always get a good laugh out of the way you describe things, and yes, I watch all of this upside down cause I come from a land down under.
