Okay,
How the Sam Hell does one of these go missing?
I read the explanation but not buying it. Anyone else?

As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?

Re: Missing: grenade launcher
For it to non-lethal it would only shoot rubber grenades, last I checked real grenades are very deadly.

So if a grenade attack happens at an ICBC office..... I call dibs on a potential suspect.

You are swallowing the media hype hook line and sinker. While it's essentially a grenade launcher in design, there are no grenades that actually fit in this launcher.

I believe it will accept 40 mm grenades. The police use it for tear gas and perhaps bean bag and rubber rounds.

Hey, it's the RCMP,,, nothing to see here, keep moving, keep moving.
True story.... back in the photo radar van days, sometimes the operator would travel around the province and have to stay overnight in motels.
One motel, in a small town not all that far from here, had an RCMP guest overnight. A few hours after check out the RCMP member operating the van returned to the motel and asked to get access to the room he had occupied.
He later approached the owner of the motel demanding to know where his gun was. He apparently left it "hidden" in the microwave oven in the room and left with an empty holster.
I guess all he had left was the single bullet in his breast pocket.

The LTL has been designed to withstand the pressures of 40X46mm Low Velocity training rounds as a safety factor. It is purposely built for Less Lethal munitions only!
In other words. It's designed for non-lethal rounds only. For safety reasons, it's been tested with the low pressure of 40mm grenade "training rounds". Technically you could load a real 40mm grenade in it - but it'll likely blow up in your face if you do.

PPCLI ? I'm not a vet but at one time seriously contemplated it. Would have ended up in around late 70's to early 80's. Didn't have the kit they do today.
Did use a number of MP-5 clips in Vegas once though....that was fun...
