Edit: I guess its too much trouble for you to read the rules.
Sticky - NO FIREWORKS, PYROTECHNICS, ETC
From AS-Rs "*** Official Forums Membership Rules ***" sticky:
5. No discussion of dangerous or illegal acts
This one should be pretty obvious. Given the nature of airsoft, there can be many things which can be done that are socially or technically unsafe. Airsoft is based around exact replicas of real weapons that also shoot BBs at high velocity, so a fair degree of responsibility is a requirement.
In other words, discussion of the use of fireworks, pyrotechnics, gunpowder or similar explosive materials along with instructions and/or links to instructions which outline how to make explosive devices using those materials is not acceptable here on AS-R and the particular post or thread will get deleted.
This is nothing new and has always been enforced here in these forums. But it appears since the start of the "Miscellaneous Weapons" forum that some people think it is now OK to talk about using fireworks, gunpowder, pyrotechnics, etc. Nothing has changed just because we added a new forum, and those items are still off limits for discussion. AS-R views the use of fireworks, pyrotechnics, gunpowder and similar explosive materials, as well as some model rockets, as unsafe for use in conjunction with airsoft (and in many states it also would be illegal) and therefore does not condone their uses.
The bottom line is that if you make a post breaking that rule, more than likely the whole thread will be deleted.

hey dude, this is hazardous, delete it before you get banned.
also, it sounds pretty thought out, but a spring is more reliable, and not nearly as hazardous

whoa dude, have you not read the sticky?? it states NO TALK OF PYROTECHNICS allowed. That means explosives :)
There have been many handgrenade topics already as well, so im sure you can post your idea in one of those. |

| While pyrotechnic grenades are perfectly safe if done right, the fact is that the forums don't allow any talk of them. Rules is rules, and crying doesn't help. |

| first of all if you throw a explosive devise at a friend they probably won't be your friend no longer. but for personal use. i guess if u need to use yarn or string dip it in wax or else the flame won't move inside. you need actual fuse string and a delay fuse inside. otherwise you will blow up. last you might want to talk to a real pyrotechnician before u do this. |

| Ok, I decided not to make an explosive grenade. What about using something like alkaseltzer and mixing it with water? Same basic idea, I'm just not sure what to put it in. |
