Jaeger Impact Grenade

[Gunboat Diplomat]

Jaeger Precision has his new (TRMR clone) Impact grenade up for pre-order. 
 

I’ve been considering a reusable grenade for a while so this comes at a good moment to part me with more cash. 
 

Seems to be an updated and approved clone of the TRMR. 
 

Any reason not to get one? Price doesn’t bother me much as it’s a one and done so eventually it will pay for itself compared to single use pyros. 

Quake seems like the obvious competition but I subjectively prefer the looks of the Jaeger, shallow reasoning be that as it is. 

 

Not really interested in BB spitting alternatives.

It'll be shite outdoors, that style of grenade always is. If you're playing indoors on hard surfaces, it should be fine.

It looks good however weight will be an issue and this is the same for the Quake. The Frag C is a better choice if you plan to run more than one as once you get to 3 or more it because quite a weight to carry but the Frag is much lighter and carrying 6 or more is about the same as 3 Quakes. 

The only advantage of the Jaeger or Quake is the multi shot options which isn't available for the Jaeger yet. The downside to multi shot is you need to retrieve the bang before using it again whereas carrying a few Frag's means you don't have that issue.

Another vote for the FRAG C here. One thing I like about it is that the safety can be put on and off with one hand and you can tell if it's on or off just by feel so you don't need to look at it (no idea if this is the case for the quake grenades though as I've never owned one)

I don't know how much it costs but Tectonic Quake 8/Oshiboom BFG has better value simply because it holds more primers. I've got an oshiboom and it's amazing at least for indoor purposes.

 

If I'm restricted to one shot I'd invest into Dynatec/SWAT VTG. At least those ones are always go off regardless the surface. Impact grenades have a tendency not going off even on hard surface let alone outdoor.

The Quake 8s and Ohshiboom are notorious for being unreliable I thought. Whereas the TRMR design is considered the gold standard and very reliable assuming you're using it on an appropriate surface.
