	The '''~~Norinco~~ QLZ-87''' and its derivative, the '''QLB-06''', are a pair of unusual repeating grenade launchers developed by China due to dissatisfaction with [[AGS-17]] clones. Deciding to develop a portable weapon more comparable to a general-purpose machine gun than a normal AGL, the designers elected to use the same low-pressure 35mm grenade used by some Chinese underbarrel launchers in a direct-impingement gas-operated weapon using a rotating bolt.

	The earliest design, the '''W-87''', was a top-feeding weapon featuring a wooden stock and a large conical flash hider, but by the time of the production version, these had been replaced with a large muzzle brake and a padded stock pad.

The production version is known as the Type 87 grenade launcher or QLZ-87.

			Though commonly claimed to be a product of [[Norinco Group]], there is no reliable source confirming that the weapon was manufactured by Norinco Group. Some Chinese sources stated that the QLZ-87 was actually developed by a group of Hunanese manufacturers under the lead of Factory 9656 (now known as Hunan Zijiang Machine Co. Ltd.).

	As with other Chinese three-letter small arms designations, there is no reliable primary source confirming what "QLZ" stands for. It is generally believed to stand for "轻兵器榴弹发射器自动" (Pinyin: "Qīng bīng qì, liú dàn fā shè qì, zì dòng") literally: "Small Arms, Grenade Launcher, Automatic"; the Armament Research Services brief on the QLZ-87 uses 榴蛋 (literally "pomegranate egg") instead of 榴弹 (literally "pomegranate munition", as a word it means "grenade"), which is a homophone and internet slang for grenade.
