Compulsive Reload Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Anyone know if they are worth it/any good. Also, can you use them at all sites? Only ever seen people use the loud black firing ones at my cqb, will have to ring them to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted December 17, 2018 Supporters Share Posted December 17, 2018 From my experience of having similar lobbed at me in a noisy CQB environment, I predict that you'll be doing a lot of shouting of "PYRO!", "GOT YOU, MATE!" and "MARSHAAAAAAL!" if it lands more than 2m from someone, let alone the claimed 10m. However, at £40 each including gas, it might be worth the gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgePlaysAirsoft Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Best off getting a normal bfg impact second hand. Got both of mine for no more then £40 posted each time and they pop up frequently enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Druid799 Posted December 17, 2018 Supporters Share Posted December 17, 2018 Joking aside bud he is right I’ve used an AI tornado and own a couple of cyclone’s and unless it’s in a very small confined space half the players will miss it going off . if you do want to go ‘grenading’ then your going to need to dig deeper in your pocket and get either a timed (dynatec) or impact (TRMR/dynatec) BFG . Me personally I’d recommend the TRMR and the 3-shot 209 base , it brilliant in CQB as it’s just so quick to re-deploy it , I have one plus I was very lucky to pick up an AlphaTec 6-shot grenade 2nd hand(sadly out of production now) so I can lob bangs all over the shop ! 😈😈😈 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wo1f Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I’ve seen multiple of those ASG grenades break after only a few throws. Peer pressure could break them, nevermind a hard surface. Stay well clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Druid799 Posted December 17, 2018 Supporters Share Posted December 17, 2018 And the 209’s are cheap as chips , as long as you can get to a real gun shop you can pick up a pack 100 for between £4-7 or around £9-11 from Airsoft retailers .👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted December 17, 2018 Supporters Share Posted December 17, 2018 Mmm, it would be nice if they worked better than they do, but they don't. Good for sites or countries where BFG or pyro is problematic, but in that case I'd go for a Burst XL over a BB grenade as it's more likely to be heard.

FreeFrag.UK Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I've seen them used a couple of times effectively at indoor CQB sites but sooner or later it seems as though most people swap to BFG's. From personal experience my motivation to move over to BFG's was due to the time it takes to reload the alternatives out there combined with the lack of a timed option for anything other than a BFG or disposable pyro.
