What is your choice of grenade for outside?

Looking to possibly purchase a couple of grenades.

It is for outside and I don't really want to have to scour the wooded grounds with leaves to pickup pieces.

If possible, I would like them to be reusable.

SO.....

What would you recommend....

Tornado, or a sound type?

Thanks

Most places ban thunder b's, so that's up to you what's around you and what allows you to use what.

I'd recommend a impact or timer from Airsoft Innovation, lifetime warranty, can't go wrong with that.

Exactly what BioRage said. I will suggest the timer type for outdoors, and here is why. With the time type and a spoon kit you can set booby traps.
If you toss and impact outdoors and it lands on leaf litter or tallish grass or something it likely won't go off. Timer will eventually.
I will also point out that they are not all that effective outdoors for a couple reasons. Firstly they will have a hard time rotating and providing the spread we all know and love due to tall grass and thick undergrowth. They are damn handy for clearing out bunkers and such and dependant on rules and so on they could just count as a radius kill regardless of bb hits. With rules like that they are super effective.
I just wish we could get the enola gaey frags in canada that would change the whole dynamic lol

Do you play at Fields which allow thunder B's?

If you play at 1 Field all the time and they have a Blast radius and allow Thunder Bs they work buy em. If your primary AO banned them tornadoes are the option for you the moment. As has been said the Timer ones Have an advantage in that they eventually go off They work differently and are not interchangeable. saw a video about a Spanish company That sells its own Grenade that can be set as a timer impact or Trip grenade lost the link i will update this if i find it.

Buy orange or Blue ones and write your name on them with a paint pen from Princess auto The color is easier to find and If it does get lost and your names on it you might see it again. (I highly recommend putting your name Call sign initials something to identify it as yours on all your Gear very good for mags ect)

TLSFX TAGINN Spoon grenades are The best but yeah sadly Not for Canucks Enola Gaye is rebuilding they're line (Frags are not on they're site atm) and Do work They are less realistic then the others though (TLSFX makes Pull ring types as well and potato mashers even).

In the end your field rules are the main factor

I wouldnt use nades outdoors unless they were disposable.

You throw it you gota go find and get it. And as simple as oyu may think it will be to find a thrown AI tornado, you've got another thing coming.

That and thieves.

I prefer all my gear on me and in my hands.

Grenades are a waste of time outside unless you play on a built-up site. They work well inside bunkers/buildings but that's it. In woodlands settings, if you are close enough to your opponent to lob a grenade at them, you might as well just shoot them. Or they'll shoot you while you prep the grenade and throw it at them. Also, as others have said, tornadoes are bad on vegetated ground, and even if you find hard ground, leaves and twigs will stop the BBs, so unless the grenades have a crazy large kill radius rule, they are pretty much useless. And good luck retrieving them, the players you lob the grenade at will most likely not get hit from the grenade and will prevent you from retrieving it.

Superglue 1 ft of orange ribbon to every nade you toss so at least you have a chance to find it. Small tail makes much easyer to find in grass.
