I was well over 200 pounds, was prepared for heavy recoil, and it damn near broke my shoulder.

I would have expected that from the 40X53, it was always designed for crew served weapons. The 40X51 ERLP is South African, and fired from their version of the Milkor MGL. Im not sure if the recoil has been kept low enough for a 203 type launcher, I believe they have to use a special recoil buffer in the Milkor to fire them.
