Next time you test grenades, can you put down a black fabric and hang fabrics blocking the background also so we can see the spread of the white BB’s a lot better. It’s hard to see it with white concrete in the background while blending in with the BB’s.
Thunder B’s are scary as hell. I’ve seen 2 accidents with them where 1 guy missed the window to a 2-story building, picked it up to throw it again, and had it go off in his hand. It tore his glove apart and his hand was hurting bad enough he ended up leaving for the day. Saw him again another time and heard from him that nothing broke but his hand was sore for several days. 2nd guy had one go off in a mag pouch and completely destroyed it. The field ended up adding to their safety brief telling people not to pick up thrown grenades for awhile if they didn’t go off properly.
This video doesn't cover what are considered 'paper' airsoft grenades AKA pyrotechnics. Not sure about rules/laws in the US but in the UK you're able to buy pyrotechnics anywhere from £2.50 to £10 which are single use grenades. Most are friction striker fired (think lighting a match) but some more expensive types come with the pin/spoon arrangement that actual grenades have. We even have 'multi-bangs' which explode 3 times in series from a single grenade and thermobaric grenades which give off huge white flashes. This video also doesn't include any BFG (blank firing grenades) which are great fun when the field allows them.
3:02 - 3:10 THAT'S HOW AN ACTUAL FRAGMENTATION(frag) GRENADE FUNCTIONS(except that the entire casing explodes and not just a singular ripped open part)
Idea. Since the stick-nades shoot off the top piece,you could technically use it as a one shot balistic knife/short range boom stick (obviously if it wasnt so dangerous)
It is generally the 40-mike that is banned everywhere rather than the mastermike, mastermikes were designed to be a lot tamer than the 40-mike so they could be used everywhere as the 40-mike was insane and everywhere was banning it. As for the rubber frag, wouldnt lobbing a GOLF BALL into the room while shouting 'frag out' be even better?
correction to somthing Wag has said, Sound grenades at most fields get elims, 15 feet radious you are out (thats the standard from all the fields ive seen) but once you add BBs to it, they become "Hit by a bb and youre out" rather than the radius
I personally don't play that game. If someone throws a BB grenade and it lands 6 feet away but no BB hits me, I'm still taking that hit. If it were a real grenade I'd be dead so in game I'm dead. 🤷
@@badsmel1741 I agree yes. But we aren't everybody There are people who are 1000% gonna fight it and be like "A bb didn't hit me" And they will be in the right. The small spring trap bb nades are not used often cuz of this
At the field I usually play at all grenades have 10 foot kill radius, but they have to do something to indicate that they've detonated. The spring grenades are allowed but a lot of players will ignore them, and if a ref doesn't actually see it nothing usually happens. Plus they have a pretty decent chance of not springing open on impact, especially if improperly tightened or if they land on something soft like grass. I used to bring a couple spring grenades because I was too cheap for Thunder B's, but I only ever used them when someone brought a shield (which was also allowed... for some reason...)
This is not what I expected for AS nades hahaha but interesting non-the less. Where I play we have nades but they are basically fireworks that throw dry peas when they explode. Much cooler imo amd they're usually cheap (2-4$)
You should try the pyro grenades by EG (The EG67 fragmentation grenade to be specific). You only get 3.5 seconds before it explodes. They are single use and cost about $12 each at my field.
I once threw a pineapple thunder b in my back yard and the blast went downward and lt left a crater. You can even feel the blast from it. Itlanded probably 5 ft from the explosion
Some interesting grenades. Personally I use a quake from techtonic innovations. Not sure if they are used in the US but quite big in the UK where I play.
Thank you for that interesting video. Just an idea, if you do another grenade test, maybe put a black screen in the background? Might make it easier to see the bbs flying around?
