One aspect of airsoft that got me rather airhard, is grenades. Hand thrown, under slung launchers, the whole nine yards. However, the question of how they work in game is still up in the air for me.

If I use a basic co2 bang grenade in a pineapple shell, without bbs, is it still considered a fragmentation grenade, or simply a disruptive device? I assume that because it has no projectiles, it cannot be a "kill". One can't call hits that don't happen.

But on the other hand, I've seen landmines that shoot powder marking it's effective range, which isn't a hit per se, but would still constitute a "kill".

Any clarification on the general use or uselessness of grenades would be wonderful.
