Madbull launchers are stupid looking IMO and all other M203s work the same. I think that the best, most realistic launchers are made by G&P or Sun Project.

Yea I thought that they looked kinda weird. Does anyone happen to know if the echo 1's are any good? Do they look cheap? I just would like to get a cheaper 203 if possible.

I would wait for a used one, it seems to be something that a lot of people buy then quickly sell as they realize they have limited effectiveness on the field, freakin' heavy, and the shells cost a ton of money.
That being said I think they are pretty cool. I would reccommend a CA launcher and most any Madbull shell.

If you are looking for cheap then here's one for you: ebaybanned.com/product_info.php?currency=USD&products_id=993It looks like this has to be modded a little to shoot CA or King arms shells according to the reviews. The good thing about M203's though is that they are very simple and have very few moving parts so to me there isn't much difference between the high end ones and the lower ends ones. Although I've not had first hand experience. All I've ever had was a CA launcher so I could be wrong.

Are the Echo 1's "cheap" as far as quality and performance? They are only $115 at most sites. I would like to get a M203, but have thought about the MADBULL XM203 Just because I tend to hold my weapon with one hand on the Grip and one hand on the front of the magwell, which I could still do with the madbull. I just know that as far as "looks" it deosn't look near as nice as the M203. Any advice on which one would be a better buy, with those thoughts in mind?

The big issue, is weight. I just sold my CA M203, as it added an unbelieveable amount of mass to my gun, for as often as I used it, it looked cool, but wasn't worth it. The echo1 kind are all plastic, and feel a bit cheap, but if I was going to get another launcher, it'd be one of them. Nearly all launchers fire grenades the same way, except for the madbull, which uses a push button, not a trigger. The madbull shorty and long launchers without the pistol grips are great, I think at airsoft GI you can even get them with a grenade at a lower price. Watch out for the madbull pistol grip launchers, they're crazy heavy. Right now, probably echo1 FTW.
