QLG-10 is a single-shot, manual, front-loading grenade launcher. The grenade launcher is pre-engraved with rifling to provide in-flight stabilization with rotation. The standard projectile weighs 169 grams with a muzzle velocity of 78 meters per second.[2]
Type 10 projectile is caseless and low velocity, designed for shoulder fire and handheld operations.[3] Type 10 grenade utilizes high-low cartridge designed for low recoil operation with extended range. The grenade has an effective range of 400 meters.[4][5]
An iron sight is provided with seven adjustable range marks. The YMAL10-35 red dot sight can be attached to the left side of the grenade launcher, providing range-finding function.[6]
