A good friend of mine who was in Iraq with me, ran out of 5.56 ammo for his M203, but had an assload of 203 rounds left, and since there was no time to get more ammo or even ask for it, he just shot all his 203 rounds at various targets.  Some of the shots he was stationary, but some were also on the move, and yes two of them blew up fairly close because he got trigger happy.
Shouldnt that be he ran out of 5.56 rounds for his M16?
But otherwise great example-if it hurts it works
That's what I said 5.56 for his M203.  That is the name of the weapon.  Yes it it an M16 with a GL attatchment, but any Marine who has taken his weapon card to the armory to get that gun, the card says M203, not M16 with grenade attatchment.

Um, inform me if I'm wrong but... isn't this just a game? who cares what would happen in real life?
Fortunatley, We have brave men and women protecting us so we can play this game.
Give respect to them then play your game.
Don't worry bout the little stuff... just have fun.

I know it's just a game, but think of it this way:

In reality, lets say you and your squad are returning to base in some karkand-like city. You go down another alley alone to see if it's shorter, and an MEC (or equivalent) is there, and starts firing at you. You quickly kill him with your M203, he dies and you suffer minor irritation from shrapnel and what not.

Instead of being disowned as a cheap little fuck, you'd be a hero amongst your fellow soldiers for going head on against an enemy and killing him with no assistance. You might even be recognized by some higher officials, a promotion or even a medal coming near.

Just think about that.
and you'll get also the Purple Heart

i have looked on the web about these GLs and i found out that the M203, G-25 and G-30 grenades need to fly 24-76 meters before they will explode, couldn't find anything on the F2000 GL.

checked up the mines, 2 min. before getting armed, i would get kill 1 or 2 times before they get armed if that was in BF2

i would say yes on a minimum distance on those GLs in BF2
Bingo
was his name-o

I don't mind the GL so much as the little fucks who feel the urge to hop and flop while shooting.  Hell, I rarely use the thing because I suck at figuring out the trajectory (well maybe I suck BECAUSE I don't use it - whatever).

People who use it sparingly (like when an ammo clip runs out on the main gun) don't bother me.  It's the people who use it as their main weapon.

in real life, you would just kill him with 1 shot from the M16A2

in the movie blackhawk down the dude fired his GL and the tube was full of smoke and steam
EDIT: or possibly stun him and wip out ur pistol to finish him off???????
well, if the GL stunned him, I'd beat him with the butt of my M16
LOL i prolly would sumthing like that to
