Lol the US had pump action repeating 40mm grenade launchers in the 1960s... Now the rotary style Milkor style... Plus the MK-19 and its variants for laying down belts of fully semi automatic high pressure 40mm golden eggs... Plus an incredible amount of wild experimental stuff from the introduction/adoption of the hi-lo 40mm grenade until current systems in development... So please elaborate on this amazing double action Russian grenade launcher of which the USA has no similar equivalent? 🤔 Because the US has pretty much made repeating grenade launchers that shoot everything from 25mm to 60mm grenades using almost every common type of operating/feeding system you could imagine over the years... Only a few repeating individual systems have been fielded or adopted, but those are combat used systems, not the 100+ experimental designs that went through some random test program... Still wish they would've kept the semiautomatic 25mm system with the "smart" programable airburst grenades, but that is a VERY expensive price per round of something without very much payload, so I can see why it was canceled... I think the Hague complaints were just an excuse to save some money on that particular weapon system.

It's more a marketing thing. Western ammo probably dominates the export market now. Russia isn't going to start using 5.56 and 40mm grenades, but their customers do.

They seem to have gotten rid of the ability to use the sights to fire it in an indirect fire “mode”. Idk if it’s used in practice with the GP-25 but it seemed like a useful feature rather than the normal way of aiming. It would allow for use of the GL while completely behind cover and would have a similar trajectory to a mortar so you didn’t need LOS.
This is not designed for the Russian army, but for foreign buyers who use NATO ammunition. It is attached to any automatic rifle. Although of course the grenade launcher was designed for package sales of Kalashnikov assault rifles for NATO 7.62x51mm and 5.56x45mm cartridges, and now buyers also get a grenade launcher for 40x46mm NATO grenades.
this looks like a very well designed piece of equipment, my main concern for the people who will use it is the weight, size, and comfort. i feel as if it would be easier to keep off the weapon, rather than on it. this would also allow for a much more standard grip. other than those concerns, i hope it works well for them.
Shotguns are good against drones only if they can fire follow up shots in rapid succession. That is, pump action at the very least. A single shot wouldn't be much better than a burst of automatic rifle fire.

It looks rather long than heavy. Actuated by the thumb and has a long throw, but doesn't have to be necessarily heavy. Doesn't look like it's double-action. The demonstrator just pushed it smoothly, I think.
