Yes, I really like the reliability factor that a weapon like that offers. Also I chose three grenades because if you have 3 grenades, you can hit 3 different targets.

Why is the dial there? On the G11 it made sense where you manually advanced the cycle in case of a misfire but here you just have the bullet move into a box where $_magic happens and there's no rotation involved.

Also for what it's worth ceramic is a pretty bad material for something that's going to be expended on the scale of bullets. Caseless propellant, sure, but in the end you can't really beat lead.

Uh... she doesn't look like she'd be that easy to handle during combat.

How does the grenade launcher load? I don't see any easy access points on the weapon.
You manually cycle the action with a dial? If that's anything like the 'rocking' lever on the M3, it's not going to be simple or easily maintained.
It seems that it'd be so short as to be a bit awkward- too little barrel to stabilize easily.
Takedown for field-level maintenance doesn't look like it will be very much fun.

Don't get me wrong, it looks sexy, just not my cup of tea.

She really does have some refinements to make, but to answer your statement about field stripping, shes a supposed to be a solid state weapon. Basically, a weapon with very few moving parts.

The grenade launcher loads by removing the barrel and inserting a new barrel into the weapon. Its like metal storm. That's also one of the reasons I gave the grenade launcher a 3-round magazine.

Added some suggested design changes.

So the charging handle is going to be behind shooter's ear? Quite unconventional approach :mrgreen:

That's where the action is.

The weapon uses electric ignition, if haven't mentioned that.

Well, look at FAMAS, AUG, Tavor or other bullpups. The charging handle can and should be located away from the action in a more accessible location.
