Y'know, I understand the arch of the shot and recoil, but I always
thought those m-79's were odd looking with the stock turned upside
down. I never really was around them much but I'm more familiar with
the 203

In my opinion, they were best fired from the prone position, with the
butt of the stock on the ground. It wasn't very damn accurate no
matter how it was held. But hey, being close counts in horseshoes and
hand grenades, right? This 'hand grenade' just had a little more
range.
