Hah I like the under barrel launcher attached to it's stand alone equivalent :D

Looks like that's the one he used in the vid.
On YouTube there's a guy who built a China Lake that works great. I'd love to get my hands on that. Next we'll start seeing GBB203s, lol.

I have a VFC M203, QD mount, nice construction. But as others have stated, the shower grenades are underwhelming: they have some value when used defensively; offensively, you have to go to CO2 shells with lower numbers of BBs, effectively turning it into an oversized and overweight shotgun. Marginally useful in the right circumstances, but I rarely carry more than a few shells (when I do mount the M203, which is rarely).

Dropleg pouch set, that carries eight Madbull XM108HP. Left hip carries up to another 4 of them.

And that's a G&P M203 on the bottom of my carbine. As with all other underslungs the thing is utterly front heavy so I compensate as best as possible with a monster NiMh and full stock.

Yeah, explosives become a HUGE part of your loadout so quick. :(

You look like a bad ass, Mr. Janus. The Timmies fits right in with that loadout, too. Heh. Same with your crew, Drake

I've had a m203 on my rifle for the summer season, and I am absolutely in love with it. It definitely adds quite a bit of weight to my rifle, but the fun I have shooting it off more than outweighs that for me. That being said, get grenades that can take CO2 if at all possible, they make a HUGE difference.

The only issue I have with CO2 is the expensive chargers needed for them. If I can eventually flip for one, then I'll definitely start looking at CO2 nades.

Seems pretty awesome!!!

siggypoo October 12th, 2014 13:25

That is SO full of win!

Mcbain500 October 13th, 2014 12:21

I don't see the use other than if it is required in a mission but, other than that I don't see much use to them. Added weight and cost for limited use.

As awesome as that is I'd still be worried about being hit with one of the bangers. Also the wondering what the decibel level of that thing is.

The smoke grenades were great though.

Moderately safe to use, and get shot with.

In that video he shows how hard it is to set one of them off with a hockey stick, and that you can hold one of the grenades with an open palm/be standing a foot away from one and be fine when it detonates. He also takes one of their foam dummy rounds to the chest.

What I'm worried about is taking one of the impact activated explosive ones to face or chest. Most people aren't wearing a full paintball mask

I'm sure some retard will close their hand around one trying to throw it back. Common sense isn't, as much as you tell people not to pick up pyro devices to throw back, some will do it anyways.
