Is there an echo in here, or was it that grenade?

I'm echoing Ghost_Rider's feelings about blanks here as I was subjected to a similar treat yesterday. (woohoo)

 

After a great skirmish, a mate playfully chucked a grenade at my feet, thinking - in my elated post-skirmish state - that he was chucking it over to check it out I stooped down to pick it up. Barely were my fingers within 12 inches from it and it went off, a 12-bore blank delicately traced my earlobes and soothingly ruptured my very eardrum, nervous system, brain and underwear, in that order.

 

Ok well I didn't actually soil myself, which was nice, but despite the fact I found it hilarious that I was dim enough to try and pick up a grenade, it was still a bloody funny thing to do to someone all by itself. Consequentially, I plan on getting a few of the very same toys with which to hurl at the enemy come the new year's games.

 

As for the actual day's skirmishing? Well all shall be revealed soon: I am happy to say though that I have found a new brand of honour....

Your local lets you use 12 guage?

 

Bloody hell, mine was only .38 special. I've never encountered a site that permits the use of the 'shotgun' blanks.

 

Far too bloody loud.

Tell me about it wink.gif

 

Most people use 9mm blanks but those that can afford the `£70 special` grenades use the 12-bore blank, and boy do they hurt your ears!

 

GZ is pretty lenient - 328+22 fps for fully auto, 425fps for single shot electric rifles with full auto disabled and the usual 500fps for bolt actions.

 

And 12 guage blankfiring goodness for those that don't mind the pain and the suffering inflicted on others laugh.gif it's a big woodland site though, so nothing like 12 bore grenades in CQB!! That would just be wrongheaded.
