Only if you're talking about the nuclear version.

The Mk 19 is a grenade launcher, and grenades by definition are
anti-personal weapons. The exception being of course the RPG
which has a shaped charge warhead (a panzerfaust by another name
and not really a grenade).Unless your talking about a few old Soviet
anti-tank stick-type monsters that were of dubious quality and used
on personal anyway.
Of note, the nuclear version has been approved for extraterrestrial
usage.......)
