Dammit, I'll say it out loud now: GRENADE LAUNCHERS USE FIREARMS SKILL!
"Grenade Launchers" is a concentration under Firearms, so if you use
Gunnery you use the normal modifier from the skill web, which is +2
because you pass one dot.

All ranged weapons use Firearms skill except for the following:

* Medium MGs
* Heavy MGs
* Assault cannons
* Missile launchers
* Bows and crossbows
* Thrown weapons
