New gas-powered reuseable VFC grenade

Green gas/propane ready, and apparently it has adjustable fuse timing (1 sec > 1 min)

Hey I read something about these somewhere, I think it was in some post about an airsoft show how someone had come up with these. I like the looks. Wonder how long before we start seeing them on our fields.

Do you folks think that using the same idea as these have, but replacing the refillable propane part of the grenade with one of those mini CO2 canisters like Airguns use would work? Or would that be to much power per use?

Why would you want to? at what .80 a shot vs pennies with propane...

Not released yet - the grenade is supposed to be out before the end of the year. I heard under $100 USD - but anything by VFC/GB Tech is not cheap.

More blast, but after watching some of the videos, it seems like it does well enough with propane. It was just a random idea.

Does anyone know if they come with adjustable timers? That last video, it took over 20sec, to pop... Way too long if yor are clearing a room or bunker.

To me, it looks like the brass nod on top, is the adjustable timer...

Probably the best gas grenade so far. Looks like it would be great for indoors.

That looks like a great design. Way better then the current lineup of gas grenades where they explode into a million pieces only to get lost.
I was hoping the Sheriff bangs would come soon but I think i'll keep an eye out for these instead.
