37mm flare mount for AR15, Predator Clone!!!!

[dirtymonroe]

So I got this in a trade, and I'm thinking I might want to build Arnold's M16 from the Predator. The hard part is I don't know what kind of flare gun mounts on the bottom of this thing. Anyone know what it is or where to get one?

 

[MegaMonkeyChunk]

No clue. All I know is that they used a 39mm in the movie.

 

[Armedsask]

They used one of the Cobray style 37mm launchers.

That will be hard to find they are not around anymore, and are hard to find..

 

[MegaMonkeyChunk]

They used one of the Cobray style 37mm launchers.

How if the movie was made before Cobray even started making them? Just look at Scarface, exact same launcher.

 

[Armedsask]

I said "Cobray style" not an actual Cobray launcher.

 

[easy]

The "37mm" grenade launcher used in Predator was custom built using HK94 parts and parts from a pyrotechnic discharger. Poncho used it in the movie.

Dutch, on the other hand, used an SP1 with an M203 (40mm) mounted under it ...

However, the M203 used in the movie was a fake ...

... and here's the back-up unit ...

So I guess I'm looking for a Cobray 37mm. What EE would I post a WTB one in? Parts and bits, or other stuff?

 

[Rebel Rouser]

They always show up sooner or later in the EE. Questar use to have some.

Just totally go to the Questar site and have a look at the "Havoc" launchers.

I ordered one from Questar a few months back, should arrive soon. Anyone know where to buy the 37mm flares for the Havoc launcher? I would really appreciate some leads, been looking a while and I am stumped!

I actually met the Predator on Friday.

I did, the "Havoc" launchers are the newer style and mount differently. The forgrip I have dosen't have a picatinny rail. I think the Cobray is different somehow.

Like the man said, look at Cobray

I have one on my Ar15 but the barrel mount is poor and will come loose with firing.

Shells are unobtainium in Cnd, but can be had in the US

they won't ship over the boarder and their are restrictions on fireworks.

You can get an adaptor thought.

Bar-Mitzvah....

 

[Armedsask]

Wow, interesting to see it wasn't even a real 37mm launcher, just a pipe. I always knew it was off but just assumed they used a 37mm
