Until the OICW arises from the grave, I think the single-shot grenade launcher will dominate. Repeating grenade launchers certainly have a future, but we might need smaller grenades or magazine-fed options first.

The M320 grenade launcher can be fired as a standalone weapon or attached to the underside of a M4A1 carbine rifle. The M32 Grenade Launcher, Multi-shot, 40mm provides the U.S. The M32 certainly has a role in which it excels.
