GL-A87

The GL-A87 is a grenade launcher that appears in Far Cry 4. The weapon appears to be based on the Chinese Type 87 automatic grenade launcher.
It appears in Northern Kyrat as a rare fixed and vehicle-mounted weapon, as well as becoming available as a handheld option upon completion of Truth & Justice.
It is a good weapon if the player values firepower over subtlety, but otherwise is very much a 2nd choice weapon for most scenarios. It is often ignored for the M-79, as it is used as a sidearm, and two grenade launchers is a loadout that likely isn't necessary. However, the GL-A87 is somewhat better for use against vehicles and helicopters because of its ability to fire automatically. It is especially good for taking out clusters of vehicles, and can wreak havoc on Pagan's Wrath convoys.
Compared to the GL-94 and the M79, the GL-A87 deals less splash and impact damage than the them, oftentimes necessitating multiple rounds to take out vehicles or larger animals. Ammuntion is also incredibly expensive, and can quickly become a problem if the player is low on money. While just as accurate as the other two grenade launchers, the sheer recoil makes precise, long-range shots difficult to pull off, and is better suited for close-up violent ambush attacks on enemies. 
When used against the player via enemy boats and trucks, the grenades do relatively minor damage, but they will knock the player over repeatedly and deafen them, making the player an easy target for other enemies. The player can very quickly get killed from this if they cannon get up and find cover in time, as they will become stunlocked in one spot, getting flung to the ground constantly.
