    Any difference in quality between mad bull, kings arms and classic army 40mm grenades?
    personally i use mad bull but noticed the price difference and made me curious.

    cheers

    most of the are sh*te other than the madbull ones, the others can leak like mad but i was talking to dex about the vanaras ones he picked up the other day and there supposed to be pretty good.,

    Really?

    Thats great, they are made of a hard plastic and are VERY cheap.

    Could be cheap grenades all round, finally.

    really? arnt they the abs made ones with the highest capacity round being something like 58?

    Madbull are by far the best, the Porsche of 40mm grenades. King Arms ones are dire and will break your heart. CA and G&P ones are decent, but not as good as Madbull.
    I've used a lot of grenades (and I'll be using even more soon) from Madbull 204 round to Vanaras 6 round 8mm and King Arms slug grenades and the three best I've used are all Madbull.
    Madbull Stingers: 24 round, green gas powered. Light, small and cheap, good spread and range.
    Madbull M433: 48 round, green gas powered. Great gas capacity, spread and range comparable to the stingers despite more bbs due to much bigger gas tank.
    Madbull XM108HP: 108 round, CO2 powered. Probably the best of the "high capacity" grenades, great range and good spread despite over 100 rounds fired thanks to CO2. Will also work on green gas if you're stuck, though not as effectively.

    48 I think is the capacity. They seem good though, they need a bit of extra grease around the fill valve threads to ensure a good seal but apart from that (I've had to do that and a lot more with King Arms grenades) they seem worth it. I'm going to be testing them out on Saturday to see how they perform and whether they'll fit the XM203.
    Even King Arms grenades work ok the first few times, the test is after two dozen cycles, will they leak and is there any damage. The two I got are going to be tested to destruction because if they are good, the whole airsoft community will benefit.

    i see vanaras do metal plastic builds actually and an 8mm bb adaptor for them :rolleyes: any info from anyone who used these would be much appreciated :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,758 ✭✭✭Stercus Accidit


    Make sure to post a review on those vanaras grenades.


    A gp30 has been long overdue in my arsenal.

    I have one of those two, including the adaptor. I've yet to give it some proper duty cycling but I'll try to get around to that this weekend too. Initial thoughts are good though. No leaks from the few times I've filled it and no good fits on the threads. The 8mm adaptor should prove interesting, that much gas over just six bbs has the potential to give great power and range (albeit to the sacrifice of spread)

    Yeah, I had similar findings. As they said, there's no long term test, hence why I'm going to stress test these two until they fail or I'm satisfied they won't.

    Make them the stand in IAA pro for a while.


    One Joe Duffy phone in and we'll know they can handle anything.
