I have a 1:1 ratio HK-416 Mid-Entery level airsoft for $79.99, brand new and sold less than about it $150.00 dollar price tag. Ive been looking for a RAS 40mm GL Airsoft attachment that isnt gonna cost me too much. Keeping a low of "below" $50.00 at most. If you dont know what a RAS 40mm GL is, heres a example:

Although the site where this image is from has it, its out of my price range. Since finding a job is getting real hard with everyone getting one to pay the bills, Im seeking some help since all the searches of mine havent brought me anything promising. Also Im taking College classes that take a good portion of my time, besides looking for jobs. Hope-ing you guys would help out a fellow gun-man here.
Get a decent gun first.

Well...ehobbyasia has deflated factory-direct prices from overseas. If that is out of your budget range, you're a bit out of luck.
Even if you could find a cheap grenade launcher, 40mm airsoft grenades are an even bigger money hole. You really shouldn't bother with the effort, especially on an $80 AEG.
The AEG was $79.99, but the store that was selling it had the price of about $175.00. If you ask me, thats a good deal.
What brand?
Double Eagle 416. Not with 175 dolla in my book.

Megastore and Evike are okay though.
EDIT: OP, that gun is worth about $50.

OH HEY WHAT'S THIS HERE? A THREAD FOR QUESTIONS?
those grenade launchers are a never ending money pit and wont help you much.
I think I want to build a LAW launcher thing for nerf footballs one day.
Hey, maybe I can use the spent LAW tube sitting in my relative's basement in Kentucky.
OP realized his mistake and left.
No he left because he knows fuck all about guns and we schooled him.
Well it's funny. The only reason we would buy the 416 would be for adverse conditions. It performs not much better than an AR in those. Also the upper receiver would be $800 or more alone. Not worth it. But you're not gonna reply.
I like the way he thinks we don't know what a 40mm grenade launcher is.
Sky, you should lurk a crap load more. We have a guy around here called Timebomb who knows a shit load more about grenades than any of us can shake a stick at.

a 416 is HKs overpriced piece of shit AR-18.
HK makes shit guns.

Their more recent pistols are good. however, the 416 is barely an improvement over a m4.

Hence why British Special Forces ditched their M416's and went back to their Diemaco L119A1 carbines.

I guess that's why nobody uses the MP5, G36, USP, G3, or PSG1
Oh wait
I think he was referring to more modern ones? IDK
Yet the MP7 isn't even a decade old, but is an excellent weapon.
Idk. I like HK, they're just expensive.

He means HK is overpriced for what you're getting. Like a G36 is essentially an AR-18 in a plastic shell but you're paying at least 2 times as much for it.

Alienware doesn't make shit computers and a Porsche is not a shit car, however overpriced either may be. Something is not 'shit' because it costs a lot, it's just 'overpriced'.

But for the price of an alienware you could get a different computer which performs a lot better, or for half the price, get something that performs about the same.
Only thing you don't get is the redundant bulky plastic cover.

But the device isn't intrinsically poor. If someone sold you an Alienware cheaply, it wouldn't suddenly be a better computer, just a more cost-effective one. Even if it costs you a few grand, as long as it's on the upper end of computers, it is by definition a good computer.
HK makes good guns. Whether they're overpriced or not doesn't change that, it just means that other weapons may be more cost-effective. For government entities that are willing to pay extra to make sure their guys have the best they can get, cost isn't always a primary factor.

Yeah that's pretty much exactly what I was trying to convey.
The obscene prices for buying an H&K is usually just paying for the brand, reputation, etc., methinks.
Just like most things made in Germany.

Oh wait, I guess you only know about guns based on your video game knowledge.
Lets start with the G3. It's manufacturing and action (stamped sheetmetal) look like it should be a super cheap gun to arm 3rd world countries with massive amounts of cheap shitty guns, but instead they try to use it to compete with the FN FAL. Quite laughable actually. It's a terribly inaccurate jamtastic fail gun. Oh also the receiver likes to crack in half. The PSG is based on the G3, and requires assloads of fine machining work to make a pretty decent DMR. Oh also all that fine machining work makes it cost $10k. The MP5 is essentially a scaled down G3. Also it's receiver likes to crack as well.
The G36 is an ar18 clone, just lacking the parts that made the ar-18 good and more plastic. Also sometimes it melts. Also costs way more than the ar-18.
The USP is a decent gun, they fixed lots of its issues with it when they made the HK .45, only to create the most retarded mag release on a handgun ever. Other than the mag release I actually like the HK .45. Not as much as my ria 1911a2 though.
HK has very good lobbyists working for them that get them lots of contracts. Just because they get a contract to arm somebody does not make them good. A few of their handguns have turned out very well though. Overall, Heckle my Kock is the worst major gun manufacture around right now. Even norinco turns out a better higher quality product than HK.
