Description
Footage shows a MK19 40mm grenade launching machine gun suffer a catastrophic malfunction resulting in face injuries for the gunner. It's not clear exactly why the malfunction occurred. It's possible the headspace or timing wasn't set up correctly prior to use or an underpowered round lodged a squib in the barrel which was then struck by the following projectile.
A massive jet of gas and smoke can be seen ejecting directly into the gunner's face. We can't be sure if the gunner was wearing eye protection, but considering he is wearing gloves, body armor, and a helmet, we can be hopeful that he was as the incident would likely cost him his eyesight without glasses.
