Airsoft/paintball grenade

[Schwag]

I saw MadMax's grenade last week. Not in action, unfortunately but the design is brilliant. If this thing works like I think it will, it will be the only grenade anybody uses. No pieces to pick up after, easy reload, tough casing, good bb spread. It should wipe out a large area.
I am dying to see it go off.

I vote we have "Cyril Sneer" put under Tri-Balle's name :P.


So fitting too, wants to do business at any time but any chance to be mean and attack even the market he wants to invade and make his money off of.

Let's be my usual blunt self: You have a place to play, and equipment to sell, that is designed 100% for paintballers. Why not stick to that clientele?

You said you had played airsoft before, and others agreed. You should know the problems a paint grenade can cause to an airsoft gun by now. So either adapt your products or stop trying to get one clientele to buy products meant for another clientele.

If you want to do buy/sell, there is a section of the forums for that. If you are serious, you will also get age-verified so you can do transactions here.

I've got one of my prototypes at TTAC3. Brian has been incorporating it into some of his games. If you want to see it in action, find out when Brian is going to be doing a room clearing session.

Way to go for business relations, dude.

You suggest a product to your potential clients, they say no and explain why not and instead of understanding and finding a mutual solution you insult your potential clients and blame it on them using the old Paintball versus Airsoft argument.

With a way to treat your potential buyers like that you can rest assured I will never buy from you. You could offer me a PTW Max for 100$ and I wouldn't buy it just in case you would ever treat me like you just did to all of us.

I think it's time you put your pants on and start to be a little more professional when it comes to your business.

When it comes to dealing with people you always have to treat them as you would like to be treated and mostly when it's regarding a business relation and because you did the exact opposite of that you just lost many potential buyers. You lost me, you lost many others and you lost everyone I will encounter since it will be my pleasure to let them know you treat your potential buyers like shit. Way to go, kid.

Depending on the price, I may pick up 3 or 4 of these. If they're as good as people say they are, they're definately going to be worth it.

+1 lol seems fitting. And just for fun Tri ball I was bush bashing through a swamp in my last milsim which was last weekend, and yes my rifle got dirty wet and crap all through it as did the other 3 guys who were in my patrol, and I'd go through it again rather than have blue paint all over my gear. Don't think there is a market for a paint granade in an airsoft game.

Mad I'd love to see a video of your granade in action to see how she works. I'd definately be interested in a couple.

Anyways, his argument is flawed big time. If I die and go to respawn, I will still have blue paint on me. If I die in battle, the guy coming with the reinforcement wave later on will not be covered with my blood.

I got a queasy feeling of deja vu reading this thread and now I know why. http://www.airsoftcanada.com/showthread.php?t=44002

Guys... Don't even bother with these pieces of crap. I am a paintballer and I saw these grenades in action at several occasions. I can honestly say that 6 times out of 10 they do not work, no matter what kind of temperature. These are manufactured directly from Taiwan so it explains the lack of quality control.

Here's the direct link to the manufacturer's website:

Even as an experienced paintballer, I would not recommend this product to anyone (and especially not airsoft players LOL)

So you're saying that everything made in Taiwan is crap?

Well since we're all being close-minded...

Everything from Japan is too difficult and complex to understand
Everything from China smells like dried fish
Everything from the USA has terrible quality control
Everything from Canada smells like a maple tree's ass
Everything from Korea stinks like over vinegar'd kimchi
Everything from Thailand is whorish and underage
Everything from Nigeria is smelly, shitty, spam-infested and beligerant
Everything from Turkey smells like bad body odor
Everything from Mexico is too spicy and fucking lazy
Everything from Russia is cold and miserable
Everything from England is cold and miserable

[GraveTech]

England is cold, miserable and wet. Don't forget wet.

Do you see somewhere in my post saying that everything made in Taiwan is crap ? . Some stuff is... Like some other stuff made in USA is also crap.. But from personal experience (with imported paintball products that is) I would say that the percentage is probably a lot higher if it comes from Taiwan.
