Claymores are pants. Save your money for something more useful, like a decent sidearm. Even a bag of rubber ducks would be a better investment. Failing that, keep someone with you. The whole "snipers work alone" thing is a Hollywood myth, so find a quiet buddy.


There's also the glaringly obvious option of not staying in vulnerable areas, or simply not staying in one place...

mate uses a spotter with an AEG and a home made distraction device which works just as well . Dex is right they're awesome fun to use but take a while to set up and unlike the super humans from the FPS on consoles we can't dig the claymore into solid concrete so using it insode a building is a no go.

true but using the trip wire makes the claymore fall over when the wire is tripped unless remotely activated but then the user has to guess when to use it

That's if you have a rubbish claymore. The only decent one was made by Gamma and is now discontinued. Massively pricey at almost €200, but ultra reliable, stable and much more robust. They're also easier to load as the springs have locks, and the trip lever is a solid mechanism. The remote detonator is even a carbon copy of the "clacker" used on many military explosives.

I have one of these and, as great as it is (especially compared to the ACM muck), I've used it a handful of times ever. There's just never a time or opportunity that requires it.

There are infra red triggered Claymores available now so no need for wire or using a remote.
just set it up and when they break the laser point.... Bam!
