I do think it looks great either way, with the wood, or not, but all black makes it look even more realistic. And Why did you leave the needle thinggy sticking out of the end of the center pipe, Like if you run out of ammo, stabb someone :twisted:.

That looks awesome, great job. It really reminds me of an M79 grenade launcher.
I think it looks better with the wood bit, it looks more like an M79...

Aww yes the final black paint really dressed it up. Also, I really like you "ammo box" setup there.

You've put a lot of effort in this concept David and it shows. Good attention to details...top notch work!

That's really cool how the barrels rotate on their own weight when one of the shots is fired. Very impressive use of your burst disk cartridge system in a launcher.

I love the 1911 pistol grip. Great choice!

That is sooo well done. I've had many grenade launcher ideas similar to this, but none could be constructed so easily. The only thing I suggest is painting the wood too. It would give it more of a tactical look.
