[mirrage]

Very interesting!!!

[deadbolt]

love the 40MM... i may have to buy some of that powder..

[Mitchell12]

The other stuff is awesome but what's special about the 40mm?

[bean]

Its supposedly takes CO2 better then the madbull. I will let you know when i get one although the plastic caps for it are nice.

But it says it can take paintballs or BB's or powder. How's that work?

[bean]

The opening is the same size as a paintball so it can hold several paintballs or a pile of bb's like a shotgun shell. Or you can mix bb's with powder to create a massive spray of dust and bb's

[Mitchell12]

If you were to fill it with bb's and then poor the powder in I would imagine you would get a wadding like effect and perhaps better performance?

[bean]

Well with the rubber end caps that you can get you can put them in any order the end cap works as wadding. They will also have some videos up on youtube so there easier to watch. I will post them when they are up.

[deadbolt]

the 40MM rounds are kinda like the rap4 ones.

[bean]

They make them and the mines for RAP4 S-Thunder is the OEM

[Spawn28]

After watching one of the video's of one of these going off itll be hard for noobs to not call hit with a fresh dump in their pants hell it even scared me............well just a little

they are essentially the same as the MadBull ones. There are subtle differences in the valve design where these ones have a point and the MB ones are flat.

the MB XMPB4's have no issues with CO2 at 900psi so I don't see how these are suppose to take CO2 better.

save your money and searching for those caps when you've fired the nade. use a tissue (kleenex) wad. I won't give my secret for a quick and secure wadding as you'll all have to figure that our for yourself!

from one of the videos in the other thread:

S-Thunder's gas grenade ***PERFORMS BETTER THAN OTHER AIRSOFT GRENADES*** and are made to be used continuously in Military Training, War Games, MilSim, Tactical Training, Entertainment Production and even RIOT CONTROL in streets and even prisons!

The standard grenade comes with a gas core suitable for top gas / green gas, but a "replacement" CO2 core is available for the much "higher" powered CO2 gas!

Compatible for use with all 40mm grenade launchers, S-Thunder's grenades can shoot projectiles up to 130 ft (40 m) with CO2 gas.

they are the same thing. likely from the same factory.

not feeling the need to purchase the upgrade CO2 valve.
