Cali Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 Well, it's past February...any update, Madbull? Link to post Share on other sites
Dominion28 Posted March 10, 2006 Report Share Posted March 10, 2006 very interested in these. Can think of a few places smoke mines would be useful at FFS and in TAC use Link to post Share on other sites
Desolation mkII Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Also very interested in this and when will they be released in Blighty. Oh and will they stand up to our weather? Link to post Share on other sites
Rapier Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Also very interested in this and when will they be released in Blighty. Oh and will they stand up to our weather? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â Don't use them in freezing weather and load them with Talcum powder (assume you live in high humidity) and you should be golden if they work like they are supposed to.

Desolation mkII Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Well, in britain it pretty much rains alot, so I was thinking it might just spray a sticky white paste up someones leg. Link to post Share on other sites
gunsR'us Posted March 12, 2006 Report Share Posted March 12, 2006 Also very intrested - this isnt usually my thing, but this looks cool, any indication about how big they are yet? Link to post Share on other sites

It's not affected by moisture. I'd also think you could wrap a lawer of plastic wrap around it loosly that will keep water out and be blown off when it fires Link to post Share on other sites

systema Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Very interesting. What kind of "smoke" does it actually release? I was assuming flour or something to the likes? Link to post Share on other sites
Illuminati Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 It uses baby powder systema, a lot lighter than flour and would make quite a nice "cloud". Link to post Share on other sites
Misfit Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 To all of the people asking how big it is going to be, this has already been answered my madbull, on the first page. Â Size is about 10 cm, kinda of small but you can carry some of them easily... Link to post Share on other sites
Rapier Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Just figure this will help since some people have already forgoten what was posted on the first page.  After several discussion on the forum, we decide to produce this low power (can't shoot out B.B.) + lot smoke (baby powder) + loud land mine. We estimate the smoke will only reach to your knees.  Moreover, the retail price will be around $20.....  It is reusable and it use green gas "only" Size is about 10 cm, kinda of small but you can carry some of them easily...

Agent47 Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 wonder why the BB idea for this mine was axed... Link to post Share on other sites
Coop Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Because I along with every male airsofter out there does not want to take 10-50 bb's to the nards. Link to post Share on other sites
blade3 Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 the little ridges look like holders for chocolate fingers!! *goes of to find chocolate fingers* Link to post Share on other sites
NOE15 Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 wonder why the BB idea for this mine was axed... Â Â Safety reasons. If you are crawling and it blows in your face you would not be a happy camper. Link to post Share on other sites
Catman Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 Safety reasons. If you are crawling and it blows in your face you would not be a happy camper. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Â Â or maybe because 15 BBs in the balls....? Â I found this landmine on the madbull site (soz if it's been posted already - don't see a link to it). http://www.madbullairsoft.com/gl/product-ps-1.php?pa=PS01 Link to post Share on other sites
Fullauto Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 35USD? That's only about 20GBP. Well, I'll say a lot more in realistic retail prices - going by AirsoftArmoury's mark-up on MadBull's tightbores, I'd say we're looking at 280% price hop (£14 inner's sell for about £40 on there :/) - that makes a final price of..... £55 a mine.  Sorry for the A2 rant, I'm done now Link to post Share on other sites
Cali Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 That's almost twice the original estimate...too bad. Since it's taken them longer than estimated to release them, I'm guessing they ran into unexpected problem, increasing their research/manufacturing costs. Link to post Share on other sites
nobody Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 You could always import a few ofthem to avoid any markup. These are resulable aswell so its a one off cost, all you need to run it is gas. Link to post Share on other sites
Mfiller Posted March 19, 2006 Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 I want one! Where might i be able to find one? Link to post Share on other sites
Jchip Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 A loop or something to that extent on the bottom that you can run paracord through would allow you to string your mines together. When you have multiple mines set up it would be a real easy way to collect them. That way you would not lose any mines when you go to collect them after a game. Link to post Share on other sites
user7 Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 i'd be more worried about dirt getting on the fill valve on the bottom of the mine. i guess some tape would cover it up but i would like to see a rubber cap that could go over the valve. Link to post Share on other sites
Desolation mkII Posted April 2, 2006 Report Share Posted April 2, 2006 Just got this PM from Madbull. I am sure he won't mind me passing it on. Thanks! Got little busy these day. Landmine is almost ready. Samples are tested by JAG precision and RAP4. ETA April 15 arrived in UK and USA. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites
Rapier Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 MUST HAVE! In may I'm defending in a Beach Landing scenario, these will be GREAT to have then! Link to post Share on other sites
