This product recieves 4 stars from me. During CQB, this grenade is most desirable, No pieces are lost and it is simple to use. The timing mechanism, while intuitive, is not described too well in the directions. - Note, when it says, "to the extreme left", it means, right before the threads become loose or right after. The head should be tight or somewhat tight for the grenade to work properly. In forest work for skirmishes, I give it 5 stars for bunker, 3 for all other times. It works well when the BB end points towards your enemy, otherwise, it's anti-climactic and just a diversion-type thing. It's essentially playing Russian Roulette "will it fire in the correct direction? ...We're about to find out>" I found this could be mostly remedied if you throw it with a football spin, the BB end first. It's certainly easier to load and use in comparison to the PFI or other such types... and no parts come off except for the detonation pin, so don't worry about replacing anything unless the cord that holds the plugs frays, but that'd be what... a dollar or something to replace? Looks good, feels good, so, an overall 4 stars.
