Well...I don't have any exp. on the table but, from what I've read:

No Juvs: a few are a good idea:
-keep gang rating down.
-More advances.
-Better specilization in general.
-Cheaper to shield gangers.

In addition, a second hvy is recommended, (doesn't need a hvy weapon) So that there's effectively 2 chances to roll for a decent advancement to compliment the hvy weapon.

The grenade launcher seems like an iffy start weapon, I think the Stubber is a better starting wpn, keeping costs low.
It's not hard to convert from the orginal Grenade Launcher bit.

Gang Leader: go with a las/auto pistol instead of stub.

Gangers: I know you want to keep things simple model wise...but their are uses to other weapons.
Shot guns are very flexible.
COmbat in inevitable as well.

I hope this helps. I considered the same thing, but for a different gang.

This is a little story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

Oh, and also, advance rolling can mean that you get statline increases as well. Sorry I forgot.

I used some Juves as portable grenade lobbers.

Grenades are too good for juves in my opinion。 I use them as bullet shields for my gangers。。。autopistol and a knife should do the trick。

I use juves to keep things nice and still! Charge the leader! Then when your leader gets there you rip him up! if you havent done so already, of course ! Juves are a nice cheap addition to any gang and when they do become gangers, they've rolled a couple of times making them powerful and strong enough to equip them with proper ganger gear. Personally juves with plasma nades and hand flamers makes me quiver! OF course with tunnels or vents, they own HARD!
