To load the M-203 grenade launcher, which is fitted to the M-16:

1. Press the release lever (it's on the left side about halfway down the handgrip) and slide the barrel forward. Any spent shell casings will fall out of the weapon when you do.

2. Put a round in the barrel and slide it back until it locks.

3. The safety is a little curved piece of metal in the front of the trigger guard. Pull it toward you.

To fire the M-203:

1. Estimate range to target.

2. The M-203 sight is on the left side of the M-16's carrying handle. There are two little things you flip out and look through, and an arm that'll move up and down to set the range. Flip out the little things and you'll see the elevation lock. Pull it back and set the range on the sight. Put the weapon against your shoulder.

3. Flip the safety forward.

4. Aim at the thing you want to get rid of and pull the trigger. Reload quick because you are probably going to miss--most units can't get M-203 range time so you generally learn to fire the weapon accurately by going to war and scaring the enemy to death with it.
