| | The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is an electrically operated machine gun developed by Hughes Tool Company intended for mounting to aircraft and armoured vehicles. The EX-34 uses the same operating system as the other "chain guns" developed by Hughes, chiefly the 30mm '''[[M230]]''' and the '''[[M242 Bushmaster]]''', whereby an electric motor drives a chain running around the perimeter of the receiver to cycle the bolt carrier back and forth. This makes for an incredibly simple and reliable operating cycle in a compact package making a chain gun seemingly a good choice for aerial and armoured use. When used in the aerial role the EX-34 was fitted with a short barrel jacket similar to that of the '''[[Browning M2]]''' and could be used in either a fixed mounting or in a flexible door gun mount with the addition of spade grips at the rear. For armoured use it was fitted with a full length barrel shroud which incorporated a forward ejection chute so that spent or misfired rounds (along with the majority of propellant gasses) would be deposited outside the vehicle rather than collecting inside. |

| The '''Heckler & Koch AG grenade launcher''' is a series of both underslung and standalone grenade and less lethal munition launchers. Different models in the series differ mainly in the method by which they are attached to the host weapon, but can also differ in their barrel length and accessory mounting options. The vast majority of the variants are chambered for 40x46mm low velocity grenades, although some variant intended for less lethal use by military and police units are chambered in 37mm. A modified version of the '''AG-C''' variant was adopted by the US armed forces as the '''M320''' and '''M320A1'''. This version became the standard design and was marketed by H&K as the '''AG-C/EGLM''' (Enhanced Grenade Launching Module), before evolving into the '''GLM''' (Grenade Launching Module).
| | Despite the success of its larger brothers, the EX-34 was not selected for any US military vehicles and saw only a few small export sales. However, the weapon was selected by the British military who domestically produced a long barrelled version designated the '''L94A1''' for use inside several armoured vehicles, most notable the FV4034 Challenger 2 main battle tank and the FV510 Warrior infantry fighting vehicle. The original short barrelled version was designated as the '''L95A1''' and was acquired in small numbers, however it is unclear if it was ever fitted to anything. Both the aerial and armoured versions were also produced in Canada by Diemaco (later Colt Canada) where is was designated the '''CG 7.62''', but once again it was not official adopted for military use. More recently Orbital ATK have reintroduced a version of the EX-34 as the '''7.62mm Bushmaster Chain Gun''' |

| The '''Heckler & Koch AG36''' is the first weapon in the AG series and was designed for the [[Heckler & Koch G36]], although it can also mount to the [[Heckler & Koch G36K]] if an adapter is fitted to the barrel ahead of the gas block. Although it is actually marked as the "AG G36" the second G is always omitted when referring to the weapon.

| |
| The '''Heckler & Koch AG-C''' launcher is the variant designed to be mounted on to standard Colt AR-15 pattern carbines with a railed handguard, with the "C" standing for "Colt Carbine". This terminology is often used to refer to these launchers as a whole, despite the fact that this is actually one of the rarer configurations of the AG launcher with the main military adopter being United Kingdom Special Forces who acquired it to mount onto their [[L119A1]] carbines (designating it as the '''L17A1'''). The launcher mounts to the carbine by having a groove on the top of the frame which slides over the bottom rail on a standard railed handguard, and locks into place on the bayonet lug using a quick release latch. This simplicity is also one of the weaknesses of this system, creating a lot of stress on parts that are not designed to take it. For this reason the UK fitted their carbines with strengthened lower handguards and front sight bases. The AG-C is visually very similar to the XM320 (the prototype of the M320) with the most obvious difference being the lack of a spring catch for fitting the XM320's adjustable stock.

| The '''Heckler & Koch AG-SA80''' launcher is better known by its British army designation '''L123'''. This variant was adopted in 2002 for British army operations in Afghanistan and fitted to the standard issue [[L85A2]] Individual Weapon. When it was first developed it was designated as the '''L17A2''', as opposed to the '''L17A1''' listed above, however when it was actually adopted it was redesignated as the L123A1 to distinguish it as a different weapon system. The L123 series attaches via an entirely new replacement handguard which must be fitted by an armourer which incorporates a short section of rail to mount a laser/light module with a corresponding place to attach a remote tape switch. The L123 has gone through a series of incremental improvement with the current model being the L123A3. The L123 can be fitted with ladder sights, an EOTech holographic sight, or a Wilcox Rapid Acquisition Aiming Module.

| The '''M320''' grenade launcher is the replacement for the Vietnam-era [[M203]] as the US army's 40mm underbarrel grenade launcher while other services continue to use the M203. It was developed from the '''AG-C''', with the XM320 prototype being almost identical. The main difference between the AG-C and the XM320 is that the latter has a modified frame which will accept and adjustable shoulder stock (with corresponding spring catch on the left rear side of the frame) to allow it to be used more effectively in a standalone role. The final production variant of the M320 features a shorter barrel and incorporates a folding vertical grip under the barrel. There are two variants of this launcher, the M320 and the M320A1 with the difference being that the former mounts to the M16A4 whilst the latter mounts on the M4/M4A1. In order to mount the M320 the lower handguard of the host rifle must be removed, and then the launcher mounts in a similar way the the M203 with the difference being that rather than having a loop at the front which wraps over the barrel, the front end of the launcher is secured with a quick detach mount locking on to the bayonet lug.
| |
| | |
| An additional variant of the M320 is the XM320 developed for the XM8. This variant has a redesigned frame (seemingly for purely aesthetic reasons to match the design of the XM8) and despite the fact that the XM8 and this version of the XM320 were cancelled, this launcher was purchased in very small numbers by the Malaysian armed forces.
