The M79 Grenade Launcher is an explosive projecting weapon tha causes alot of damage in a wide radius.
The M79 Grenade Launcher is found only in the first Max Payne. In many ways, it can be considered the most powerful weapon (in terms of damage per shot); however, this is countered by its' frequent need to reload and the danger of using it at close range. It is first encountered when inside the Punchinello Manor, off a mobster who attempts to kill Max through a damaged door.
