    I'm looking for suggestions guys, I went on an away day last year to senny and they had set up trip wire mines all over the place, basically it was a piece of fishing line running across the windows attached to a charge that went off when tripped. I presume these are friction igniters, now the problem is I want to try this out at my local site BUT I can't find any charges that I think would workable that I could use cheap enough, because it has to be disposable. We looked at the idea of combining party poppers to make the bang louder. Any ideas?
    This will be so fun, I'm going to be s**** scared walking around the site now

      I can't see that you'd have any probs with party poppers, but using maroons? Thats a not a smart idea as far as i'm concerned. The fact is that we're talking about Airsofters here, and the one thing I learnt when head marshalling the FireFight sites aeons ago is that they will *always* do what you least expect them to - so you have to plan accordingly.

          I tried a great setup that involved a bag of party poppers. Took the cardboard covers out and the streamers, put about 10 bb's in and put the cardboard cap back on. As they have such a low velocity it doesn't matter what hight there mounted. One or 2 on the corners of door frames and your laughing.

            not for you because of the costs,but tornado grenades are fairly unreliable when used as timed grenades,but if you pull out the little black stopper,they become very effective trip mines...you leave the pin in,but pull it almost out,as soon as its yanked out the final bit the grenade goes off,either as a bb shower or as a percussion grenade,depending on how you set it up.

              as someone said above, i wouldn't use a pyro. look into the whole spring/spike + blank set-up. my mate made one, its basicly like a door latch, with a big spring and a spike/firing pin, and a holder for blank, all attacked to a stake.

                ^ Don't have to use the 12g blanks that are £1 each either. Get the 9mm adaptor and 9mm blanks are 15p each.

                  You can get blank firers that farmers put on their gates for a couple of quid. When the gate opens (or in this case the tripwire is pulled) I believe it pulls a pin out, releasing the 'hammer' that sets off the blank. Cheap, cheerful (although not disposable) and simple enough to be reliable.

                        it looks a bit like a dynatec impact grenade,but i believe it to be smaller in dimension,and is operated by a trip wire and not by impact or timed fuse

                          Told ya. Party poppers are the way to go. You can get a bag of them for a quid, there small, disposable and you can fit about 10 in a mag pouch with a small reel of fishing line.
