Default faux Yugo grenade launcher from Newton Firearms

I put a thin coat of cold blue on my GL from jnewt. Maybe another few coats?

The machining on the piece is very nice. I added the retention spring from an old G-1 launcher and it looks very close to a real one.

Great product, fast service. Seller goes by "jnewt" on ar15.com. He's out of these, but he's planning another run this summer that will be even closer to the original.

This was one of a test batch he had made. The machinist didn't have a real spigot to measure, so the it's not an exact copy. The next batch is supposed to be perfect.

They're sold out now, but it was only $20.
