[Bushmaster Recon]

Last Sunday, I was lying in a ditch waiting for the enemy to come. I was watching our teams flank and I was there to hold up any enemy attack trying to flank our team. While I was waiting there I was thinking to myself, wouldn't it be useful to have a trip mine down the way they would come come if they were to attack.

Since then I have been thinking alot about how to get a trip mine. However I am not sure on how to go about it. There are several things I have to consider:
» one is that I dont have the budget to go out and buy an airsoft claymore or mine. That means it will have to be cheap so it will probably be a DIY job.
» two is that the sites I play at dont allow grenades or mines to be filled with BBs so it needs to be something that makes a loud noise.
»three is that it needs to be small enough to be easy enough to carry.

Hoping to hear your thoughts and ideas. Is the requirements too much to ask for or is it possible.

Happy posting.

Those are some good ideas. The evike ones look like a good idea, so does the rat traps. solarisjock, I am a little unsure what the resulting effect is.

hmm, i see i forget the part where it gets armed..... to arm it you compress the spring, then put the nail in to retain the spring. pour some bb's in the top. now it is armed, and when some unsuspecting target walks across the trail and pulls out the nail, a shower of bb's will come flying out of the pipe.

Ah now I see. That makes sense but if you read my opening post, the sites I play at do.t allow mines and grenades to be filled with bbs.

 

[Bushmaster Recon]

Yeah, that would work.

 

[Bushmaster Recon]

Do they allow M203 grenades?

yeah they do

I would not like to get sticky flour all over my uniform. I think the talc powder would be better.

They feel that exploding bbs everywhere is dangerous.

Would it be possible for you to make it and upload a video of it working on this thread.

Are you talking to me?

sorry, yeah I was talking to you.

Is this the only venue near you? I could not feel safe playing at such a venue.

This is at all sites and I have played at quite a few. I think it may have something too with laws on airsoft in Ireland. Why could you not feel safe?

 

[Bushmaster Recon]

Are the peagrenades sold in Ireland?

not that Im aware of. I think only thunder b and tornado grenades are avalible.
