Merr-Sonn GL-4 Grenade Sling

The MS GL-4 is a popular weapon in Imperial service. It adapts the electro-magnetic railgun technology of old to fire a hand grenade. It is a large, single shot, shoulder weapon. To load it, one first trips the barrel release, and inserts an ARMED impact fused hand grenade. Obviously, loading the grenade backwards or dropping it are really bad ideas. This is the origin of the camp that considers the GL-series to be death traps. Still, it does provide more versatility with stock hand grenades, without having to modify them, such as with the MilTech Adapters. It has been seen in service with Stormtrooper and Assault units, with the regular Army and the Navy gradually receiving them.
