    I recently got myself a M203, about the shells just wondering if 18 round grenades are worth while? The price is really attracting me!

    Generally the less rounds in the grenade the longer the range it'll have. And the more rounds you have in a grenade the bigger the spread it'll have.

    So you have to decide what suits you best.

    the 18rnd ones tend to have much more range (and rocochet everywhere in confined spaces ) be warned I've found that the King Arms ones tend to be more problematic to reset than others (sometimes you have to take the bloody things apart to do it)

    These are the ones that I use.

    Hold 18 rounds each, quick to reload and I use the 0.12g bbs just for that extra distance.

    No problem Flecktarn!
    I have a CA 18rd M203 myself that I bought here on boards. I just fired it off a few minutes ago and it hit my back gate easily. I was standing about 80' away from it and using .2g BB's.

    Although I haven't used it in some time and it was leaking like crazy (no big surprise there). I would suggest you stay away from CA as I believe they only work in CA launchers as they're actually 41mm and don't fit in any other launcher (AFAIK anyway). Also, they're sh!t and leak a lot ;).

    Yeah got some of them coming in myself as well.

    And I thought you might have been looking at the CA's, but I thought you'd rather be told that they're a wasted of money then find out for yourself ;).

    as far as what bb's to use in them goes, the best I've found is a mix means they leave the nade at slightly different speeds and bump each other - it increases the spread

    US$134 for a set of 4 grenades, with a MOLLE Cordura quad pouch for easy carrying.

    I think you couldn't get on Redwolf it's because they were changing their website.
