    Looking at getting some smoke canisters / grenades etc for a skirmish I hope to attend, can anyone recommend anywhere to get them? A lot of the sites I have seen so far dont ship them.

    Yes, if anyone has left overs at Predator, try to resist the urge to bring them down here.

    I'm pretty sure the ones they are using in Predator at the moment are Chinese. Isnt that what Nonex said? Explains the bad build quality.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭N.O.I.P.


    Nope all made by Nonex UK I think, not that it really matters we still can't use them down here


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,877 ✭✭✭liamo333


    Yes i CANT imagine what it would be like having a gernade tossed at me in HRTA!!!

    Oh yeah and how exactly would you know?

    Oh wait.....................Crud

    They could be used but an import licence would be required (it covers using them).

    The form is here, but no idea on costs:

    It seems using fireworks without a licence can result in a five-year jail term and fines of up to €10,000. Tossing an airsoft grenade at someone just became alot less attractive to me!
