    Bought an M203 (long) for my M4, but it came with no shells.

    I would like to pick up a couple of shells, but am not sure what the reputable make(s) are and what capacity are best. So hoping that some of the folks here who have/use M203's would be kind enough to offer their advice/experiences.

    Was looking at the following

    But are the others that woule be recommended above these?

    TIA

    I use the bigger version of these: http://www.mainirishairsoft.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=812 Although these somehow hold more BB's :confused: And with the smaller ones you'll have the BB's longer in the Grenade launcher directing the Spread better :-) Great price for two never have a problem with S-Thunder

    Cheers for the feedback Ronan. Can I ask what the story is thugh with the red plug that holds the BB's in?
    • Does this not affect the functioning ?
    • Do you need to retrieve it each time it fires?
    • Does the plug fly far when grenade is fired? Is it easy to find?
    I was also looking at the Madbull 120rnd grenade on MIA, but they are out of stock :(

    • Does this not affect the functioning ? Nope It Just Keeps The BB's In
    • Do you need to retrieve it each time it fires?No You Can Buy Packs Of 100 And They Come With about 7
    • Does the plug fly far when grenade is fired? Is it easy to find?Yes It Flies Far And Yes Because Its Red Its Easy To Find

    Pretty much any of the madbull m203 nades are pretty good performers. Ive had a few and i loved them.
    Their pricey but you pay for quality and reliability.
    If you can go for the king nade 204rd, its co2 capable as well....nice kick off it too ;)

    The s thunder shells are pretty good too, i had a good of one recently, it was upgraded with a CO2 core and a nice whack off it too.

    As mentioned above instead of the red caps you can also packaging tape over it and it performs just as well.

    How old is it/how long have you got it? How many BB's does it hold?

    If there are no issues with it (leaking etc) then yes, I may be interested, depending on price of course :)

    Stick it up on my "Wanted" Advert with a pic and a price and I will let you know.

    I've tried a few differant shells and the madbull version of the above is the best I've tried so far.

    I got mine before the red fad exhisted for them and cotton balls is what I was using.
    Great for reloading in the field. Nd ya don't need to try recover the plugs.
