I downsized the grenade images because admittedly, I was confused as to which one is the launcher and which one were the grenades when I first came upon the page. I thought that all five were grenades when I first looked at it. Also, if we have images for these rifle grenades, what about things like Energa and all the other compatible grenades? Should their images be on the page too? That would be a lot of images. --[[User:Wuzh|Wuzh]] ([[User talk:Wuzh|talk]]) 02:51, 19 January 2019 (EST) | I downsized the grenade images because admittedly, I was confused as to which one is the launcher and which one were the grenades when I first came upon the page.

Rifle Launcher and Rifle Grenades
I downsized the grenade images because admittedly, I was confused as to which one is the launcher and which one were the grenades when I first came upon the page. I thought that all five were grenades when I first looked at it. Also, if we have images for these rifle grenades, what about things like Energa and all the other compatible grenades? Should their images be on the page too? That would be a lot of images. --Wuzh (talk) 02:51, 19 January 2019 (EST)
- Um...didn't the captions tell you? I'm not trying to be a jerk here, I'm just a little confused as to how that could happen. Also the image of the thing on a rifle isn't really all that useful because we usually have one section for the rifle and another under grenade launchers for the muzzle device, so it's best to use an image of the device dismounted.
- As for other grenades, I'm just sticking to the ones specifically for this launcher. I suppose we could put the others on a see also, but only the M7A3 can fire the Energa anyway. Evil Tim (talk) 02:55, 19 January 2019 (EST)
