Introduction: Cheap Airsoft Frag Grenades
This is my first instructable, so hang tight. This grenade is obscenely dangerous, and should only be attempted by professionals or people with little-to-no attachment to their various extremities. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but this thing could easily take off a few fingers if you handle it improperly. Also, the noise is near-deafening, so watch out!
Step 1: What You'll Need:
1 Key-Chain Ring
1 Pack Strike-On-Box Matches
1 Commercial-Grade Firework
50-200 Cheap Airsoft BBs
1 Toilet-Paper Tube
Scissors
Scotch Tape
Duck Tape
1 Pack Strike-On-Box Matches
1 Commercial-Grade Firework
50-200 Cheap Airsoft BBs
1 Toilet-Paper Tube
Scissors
Scotch Tape
Duck Tape
Step 2: Remove Striker Pads
Use the scissors to cut apart the match box and save the pads and top and bottom for later.
Step 3: Take Apart Firework
Use the scissors to carefully disassemble the firework, removing the warhead from the rocket. Cut the main fuse off the rocket, and then discard.
Step 4: Seal the Tube
Seal one end of the tube with duck tape.
Step 5:
Stuff a couple tissues or sheets of toilet paper down the tube.
Step 6:
Add about half of the BBs to the tube.
Step 7:
Bind all three fuses together with scotch tape.
Step 8:
Assemble the triggering mechanism by taping the two strikers facing each other over the clip, and looping the ring through the end.
Step 9:
Tape six matches around the fuses.
Step 10:
Put the whole explosive together. Note: This mechanism can also be employed to great effect with smoke bombs. Just substitute caramelized sugar and KNO3 for a firework and BBs.
Step 11:
Wrap the explosive loosely in tissue, and pack it in the tube on top of the BBs.
Step 12:
Fill it up almost to the top with BBs, then pack another tissue in on top for good measure.
Step 13:
Tape off the top, then decorate as you wish! Have fun fragging your friends and try not to blow off your hands! The blast radius is about 15-30m, and within 5, they will draw blood. Be careful!
