What can I use a 6 shell grenade launcher for? Ya I could use it as a huge 6 shell shotgun but at close range, I will have a side arm or one of my main weapons. But it could be loaded up with the foam balls to take out any enemy 'tanks'. I am offered a CAW grenade launcher (no shells) for $50 and I don't know if I should do it or not. Don't want to waste my money on something I might not use.

I know some will launch foam balls but in a scenario with vehicles I think a shower of 120 BB's would make louder thunk than a foam ball, making it obvious that the vehicle was hit to its occupants. Just my 2 cents. |

If it were me, even if I wasn't going to use it I would buy it. You will not find a launcher for under $150 that's of any quality. Worst comes to worst and you absolutely hate it, I would be more than happy to relieve you of the problem launcher and shells.
There are shells specially designed for launching foam items ranging from balls to rockets to nerf footballs. For that matter you can really load anything you want into the tubes as long as the shells have gas in them. For taking out armor of any kind most MilSims require some sort of solid foam projectile.
I wouldn't underestimate the shower shells, loaded properly they are more than capable of firing 25-75ft. And all the shells have the capacity to make quite a bang.
And if you decide not to buy it feel free to refer whomever is selling it to me.

The CAW doesn't have a long enough barrel to do anything offer than point blank shots with a nerf rocket.
My girlfriend bought me the ICS launcher for my birthday and yeah we ended up returning it and buying a go pro. In my opinion they are too impractical in airsoft. If they actually launched rockets a good distance and the event host allowed AoE then I might consider it but that's not the case.
Having six shotgun blasts just isn't worth lugging that huge thing around.

Resellability is probably the best part to that deal. If you don't like it, there will always be someone else who will be interested. As for practicality, I have a little single shot grenade pistol, and I can see where that might be useful (taking out large groups of opposition, last-ditch "fire in that direction while running" gun, or just to scare people), but lugging around a Milkor replica, even a cut down one, would be very cumbersome and very unwieldy.

That video what so damn funny.
Grenade launchers can be used to clear out multiple enemies in a short range shootout.

Watching someone free the shit out of the enemy is hilarious to me. Especially if they're doing it with an MGL.

Just my 2cent but if your offered a CAW launcher then go for it. Shells now a days on the forums can go for as little as $20. As someone mentioned above even if you get it for a resale and find 1 shell then you can double/ triple your return.

Personally, I would use a grenade launcher to launch grenades.

If your nade launcher can shoot the nerf rounds, use it against vehicles, dood.
