The FN40GL grenade launcher has been designed and developed by FN Herstal to fit onto either the SCAR-L or the SCAR-H model or be used as a stand-alone grenade launcher when attached to a buttstock assembly.

The FN40GL-S Stand-Alone grenade launcher consists of:

• a stand-alone buttstock assembly
• a low velocity grenade launcher
• a specific trigger module

• Fast Assembly and Disassembly
  
  The grenade launcher attaches to the lower rail of the buttstock assembly and locks rapidly with two throw levers allowing fast assembly and disassembly.

• Automatic Ejection and Easy Chamber Inspection
  
  The grenade launcher features a forward and side opening barrel system. The forward opening allows the extraction and the automatic ejection of the grenade case whilst the side opening of the barrel allows easy chamber inspection and use of long grenades.

• Compact and Lightweight
  
  The FN40GL-S grenade launcher weighs 2.8 kg (incl. leaf sight) and features a retractable buttstock that makes the weapon very compact (not exceeding 528mm). This ensures easy transport and quick engagement.

• Accuracy
  
  A leaf sight attached to the upper rail of the buttstock assembly guarantees accurate firing.

Note: The SCAR models shown here are configured to USSOCOM configurations. The export models may be subject to slight variations.
