What is the maximum point range of the MK19 in meters?

• A. 1200m
• B. 1800m
• C. 1500m
• D. 1600m

Answer: (C)

Maximum point range is the farthest distance at which you can reliably place a single round on a precise point target with a direct-fire path, using standard ammunition and conditions.

For the MK19, the 40mm grenades fly in a high arc with some dispersion, so while the round can travel farther, accuracy on a single point target drops off beyond about 1,500 meters. That makes 1,500 meters the practical limit for reliably hitting a point target, which is why it’s the correct value. Distances shorter than that are within capability, but not the maximum, and distances longer than that fall outside reliable point-target engagement, though the weapon can still reach farther targets in an area-fire sense.
