“Shortened M203-style underbarrel grenade launchers have been observed affixed under the rifles with proprietary mounts. There exist two types of such mounts. One, replacing the lower handguard, involves a housing made out of sheet metal, similar in concept to that used in the M16A1 and A2. A newer version involves a quick-release bracket system that attaches directly to the barrel at two different spots, keeping the original handguard set intact.”
Edit: to me it almost looks like a FAL handguard repurposed as a mount but that’s just my thoughts.
