Sound Grenades/Flashbangs

Does anyone here in Canada sell airsoft flashbangs? If so which ones should someone look into and which ones should someone stay away from? Noise level is not a factor.

This might have to be moved to the age restricted section if we cant talk about where to get them.

The ones I know of are the Madbull GSG-01, Thunder B, and the Deep Fire STUN.

The Thunder B and the Deep Fire STUN both seem to require parts to replace for each use. The Madbull requires a CO2 adapter.

Thats another option as well although that requires buying discs (which isn't much, but something else I may forget to buy to run the grenade )

Well it's still 4$ for like 50-100 discs.

I am interested in the ThunderB personnally, since I prefer paying 2-4$ for a new shells instead of throwing 100$ and risking loosing it.

Plus, only ThunderB would work with my ww2 loadout

I prefer the "man" version: Airbang + toilet paper roll.
The downside is, it's really loud and can be dangerous if not used properly.

Someone should make hard metal casing with igniter to light them up. The resulting explosion would also be safe. (not taking into accound the super loud bang).

I sell AI Tornados, AI Distraction Device kits, and the Deep Fire STUN Distraction Device grenade.

If noise level is not a factor, then why consider any "bang" grenade at all?

In my experience, the Deep Fire STUN is the loudest, followed by the AI Tornado DD kit, followed by the Madbull. I've no experience with the Thunder B.

Replacement disc kits are quite cheap for both the AI DD kit and the Deep Fire STUN grenade. These burst discs will be way cheaper per bang versus the Thunder B, which requires an entire 12g CO2 powerlet for each bang as well as a replacement shell. If cost and replacement parts is an issue, the Thunder B is the costliest to operate.

While the Deep Fire STUN can run well on propane, you'll get the loudest bang with CO2. Thus, a CO2 would also be recommended to use with it as well.

I use the tornado with the distraction kit.

LOUD!!

If you already have a tornado (timed), it will cost you next to nothing for the kit.
Don't worry about replacement disks because you won't run out of them. You get enough
with the package and when you are running low, pick up another pack for like $6!!

Are the madbull devices safe to use in cqb? What about the Deepfire one?

I remember hearing that a bunch of them were deemed unsafe for use.

I would love to have a nade that runs on CO2.

So is the "Thunder B" grenade the only one that takes the CO2 canisters?

Damn! So much for best of both worlds (CO2 without the expensive exploding plastic bodies compared to the plastic discs)
