Sorry dude, but that is incorrect. The only airburst in the game is the ZX25 Airburst which can only be attached to the XM8. It can be set to explode after it travels a certain distance (hence the "airburst") which is useful for campers around corners.

The other difference between the GL36/M203 and the ZX25 is how they travel. The GL36/M203 travel forwards on a fairly steep downward arch until reaching impact. The ZX25 on the other hand seemingly travels in a perfectly straight line until it makes impact on an object or until set distance is reached. It does however travel downwards, but on a much slower and less noticeable (sp?) angle.

All other info can my found in my first post.

Also you dont have to reload the airburst after every shot, all the others you have to wait for the player to put a new nade in the launcher whereas the airbust you dont.

Frag grenades explode horizontal and are best used for taking out people in a flat area. The radius for these is larger, but the force decreases as it expands. (Will knock people over but not kill them)

Now as far as the GL-36 and the M203 are concerned, I don't have a definitive answer but I'll explain it as it appears to me.

GL-36 travel faster but go a shorter distance. They also seem to have a smaller blast radius.

M203s will travel further but slower meaning you'll have to lead your target more. Your aim can also be off by a bit more and you should still get the kill. Also if what im thinking of is right the GL-36 is the grenade launcher that goes on the bottom of the AK-47 isnt it really a GP-30? or i think thats what they call it

I hope this helps you out in some way.

Frag grenades explode vertically like this \/ thats why if you go prone next to one you might not die. And i think HE grenades explode every where. Also if the GL-36 goes on the bottom of the ak-47 then isnt it really a GP-30?

Theres lots of different Kalishnikov grenade launchers. The GP-30 is one and the GL-36 is another one. I think the GP-30 is the older, outdated version and the current issue Russian launcher is the GL-36, only it is used on the AK-74.

Shastintor your right the AK-47 has the GL-36 and the ak-100 series uses GP-30's and GP-25's.
