{{Weapon infobox |image = M203 gl.png |users = [[United States Army]]<br>[[United States Marine Corps]]<br>[[Canadian Army]] |cartridge = 40mm |capacity = One |fire mode = Single Shot}} {{Quote|The M203 is a single-shot, breech-loaded grenade launcher mounted onto the M4 series of assault rifles. Using a top mounted ladder sight, shots can be ranged from 50m to 250m. The 40mm High Explosive Dual Purpose grenades can be used as a means of damaging lightly armored targets and vehicles.|In-game description}} The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a [[Weapons|grenade launcher]] featured in ''[[Squad]]''. == General Information == The M203 is an under-barrel grenade launcher for the M16 series rifles and [[M4|M4 carbine]] variants. The M203 fires a 40 mm explosive round which is highly effective against infantry targets and is single-shot. The M203 is intended to be used for close fire support against area targets. The rounds used for the M203 are very effective and can break windows and doors, cause many causalities, and damage light vehicles. It saw first action in the Vietnam War in the 1970s. == Statistics == {| class="wikitable mw-collapsible" width="420px" !colspan="2"|Details |- |colspan="2"|[[File:40mmhedp.png|center|link=]] |- |style=width:15em |Weapon Name |style=width:15em |M203 HEDP |- |Weapon Class |[[Weapons|Grenade Launcher]] |- |Damage Type |Light HEAT |- |Magazine Size |1 |- |<abbr title="Cost to rearm one magazine" style="cursor:help;">Ammo Cost</abbr> |7 for HE, 10 for smoke |- !colspan="2"|Damage Model |- |<abbr title="Direct hit damage from the projectile" style="cursor:help;">Base Damage</abbr> |60 |- |<abbr title="Maximum explosive damage" style="cursor:help;">Max.

No range indicators can be found on the leaf sight in the current build of the game, but each mark cuts around 25 meters from a distance. * Grenade launchers have a smaller base damage radius than [[Frag Grenades|hand grenades]], meaning anyone near the point of impact will die, and those further away will be damaged, possibly causing them to bleed. == Media == [[File:SquadM203.webm|center|frameless]] == Gallery == <gallery> File:M4image.jpg File:M203 Grenade Launcher.jpg|M203 in reality </gallery> == Trivia == * The M203 is planned for replacement by the German Heckler-Koch M320 grenade launcher module in 2020 as the standard grenade launcher for the [[US Army]]. * In real life, the M433 HEDP round penetrates 50 mm of armor due to the semi-HEAT construction. This is not reflected in-game to balance among all types of grenade launchers. Other HEDP weapons include the [[L123A2]] and the [[MK19]]. All grenades also have a significant shrapnel range, a characteristic commonly underrepresented by first-person shooters. == See also == * [[Grenadier]] * [[Weapons]] * [[GP-25]] * [[HK79]] * [[L123A2]] * [[QLG10]] ==External links== * [[wikipedia:M203_grenade_launcher|M203 on Wikipedia]] {{Navbox weapons}} [[Category:Weapons]] [[Category:Grenades]]
