Wot a 9mm or a 12g ?, lf it was a 12g id understand, they've got some nuts on em but I've always found 9's to be fairly tame, been in very close proximity to 9's, including indoors, & never known anyone affected afterwards ?
9mm blanks are nasty, .209's are acceptable to me. My TRMR takes both but I never used 9mm in it.

They all took it well to be fair. We were having a laugh before about the stuck pin, so it was no real surprise to anyone I'm sure ?Duff said:
I tried using .209's but the adaptor for my bfg is not quite right, so around 70% of tries the ping doesn't strike the blank strong enough for it to go off.
The 9mm adapter works all the time.
Pretty sure theres an OOPS moment like this every week at the Mall.. Standard practise for someone to log a nade (solid or paper) and it hit a door frame or bounce back in etc.
I once lobbed a smoke which bounced off a tree and landed behind me!!
Ahh yes I am familiar with that too.
We only use that for MTA and Active Shooter stuff though.
The house and fort we uae a fair bit for building searches.

Treated my self to one of the Dye i4’s (well it was half price so rude not too ?) used it for the first time on Sunday but I had to bin it after first game and go back to my Wiley X and mesh mask as I was sweating like a pig in a synagogue with it on , my head felt like it was cooking ! . But positive from a negative even with the sweat literally running down my face lense didn’t fog at all , so that’s a big plus for it .?

Tbh when I got my dynatec, bout 15yrs ago, only remember 9 & 12 being the options available to me, dont remember .209 being an available option ???
Back then I was doing minimum of 2 games a month with my team, sometimes weekly in summer, but last few years have been way quieter for me & then its usually woodland sites, so not seen much grenade use, most peeps are loathe to chuck £60+ grenades around the woods, so I'm prob out of touch with whos using what these days.
Do like the look of the tmr's though, piss easy to load etc, just had a shit diagnosis & I'm questioning whether continuing to play is feasible, next few games will be the test, all being well i'll be shopping for new kit, pyro is high on my list.
(me & a mate used to buy 100 mk5's at a time from spectrum, happy days ?)
I should be sponsored by mechanix gloves. They did a great job burnt the fabric between fingers but not a scratch on my skin. Got mother in law to sow some old sock fabric in between to fix them. Lol
