ACOG Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 (edited) This is a quick review of the dummy grenade. Pics will be up by monday. A teaser pic: Feel: The madbull grenade has a dense foam body with an all metal action. The foam is not squishy, but when hit with it, it doesn't hurt that much. It feels nice in the hands and is the perfect size for gripping. Nice weight, too. The metal action is cold and strong. 93/100(The feel is overall very nice) Quality: The foam on the madbull grenade doesn't seem like it will rip off anytime soon, when i scratch it with my too-long fingernails, it won't do anything to the foam, although really hard scrapes might give it a mark. In the action, the main areas of interaction(hole for pin, spoon holder) are getting scratched up after around 50 run-throughs. 79/100(metal is scratched easily) Performance: Pulling the pin is a relatively smooth action and is pretty easy. The spoon will fly off, albeit not very far, but still it will fly off. When you toss it, it'll go straight until it hits the ground, in which the metal part will affect the way it bounces and rolls, so don't plan to do any off the wall or bounce here or there tricks. 71/100(once it bounces itll go off in a random direction. Overall: 83/100 or 8/10 Pros: it's fun to mess around with. trick your friends with it. full metal high quality foam cons: Cant really expect where itll go once you throw it metal gets scratched REALLY easy foam might get hurt after a while Bottomline: it's $16! It's decently cheap and if you want something to mess around with, or practice it's for you. also a good "throw in the room and watch them run away" type a thing. I like it.

spetsnazdave87 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 Well you called it a powdershot grenade until you edited the thread title two minutes ago... you break it then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ACOG Posted December 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 (edited) i called it a Powdershot dummy. it's a dummy version of their powdershot. seeing as people cant seem to understand that, i changed it. THIS IS WHAT I'M REVIEWING THIS IS THE ONE THAT WORKS AND IM NOT REVIEWING IT. THE ONE IM REVEWING IS THE DUMMY VERSION OF IT. Edited December 27, 2009 by ACOG Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greg Posted December 28, 2009 Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 (edited) THIS IS THE ONE THAT WORKS AND IM NOT REVIEWING IT. THE ONE IM REVEWING IS THE DUMMY VERSION OF IT. I had a go on one of these the other day. (The 'not dummy' version) Complete waste of time, the random fuse as per gsg1 makes it unusable. A real shame as this could have been a cheap, reusable banger, where noise limits apply. Greg. Edited December 28, 2009 by greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ACOG Posted December 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2009 That's sad, I was thinking about getting it. so it's a no-go, then. I wonder if the party-popper version will be any better... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nasty_TheYankWelshOne Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 That's sad, I was thinking about getting it. so it's a no-go, then. I wonder if the party-popper version will be any better... I emailed Madbull to inquire about when that version was to be released, and apparently it was canceled for safety reasons. I bought 4 of these in anticipation of buying the party popper inserts, but now it seems all we have is the powder shot inserts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brucey44 Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 THose would be very cool if they would blow u paint or something. Is there anything like that on the market? How much? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
enigma83 Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Pratically they are the same granade but one works meanwhile the other doesn't, it's right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
