Anyone used these before? I'm sorely tempted, and I haven't played urban for ages!

The door one sounds very nice

*gets card*

Hmmmm......

[TheBauer]

thanks to you, i just ordered 2 of the trip mines and 20 blanks.

12g is quite loud, so i wonder if we can use the 8g thats used in the BFG's that way we can actualy use these in the doorways.

these could simulate claymores outside, spesh in the bush/ woodland. set one of these babys off and counts as a hit. *fruitcage* awsome

[Rob15]

If you have the adaptors that come with bfg's then i can't see any reason why you couldn't.

[Ubar]

A small amount of Black Powder is ejected so these have to be placed either close to the ground or over 6ft in the air so that a players face can't come close enough to cause damage to the skin or eardrums.

wouldnt that be right in a lot of people's faces?

[Pablo]

Possibly your chin, Ubar. In my case, right in the eyes. Nice.

[Rob15]

Hm, i wonder if the door trap could be used in other ways

Need to find a way to justify getting one even though i mainly do woodland...

These are great burglar deterrents. I might buy a few.

Get a "Danger: Mines" sticker in your window, next to your "Neighbourhood Watch" sticker.

But he's in the US.....

EDIT : is it really worth bothering shipping something so cheap over there.

Maybe, maybe not. I might lose interest in this anyway (See my sig for the reason).

[Rob15]

Well i just ordered a Door mine and 100 blanks

I'll see if i can use it when it arrives, if not i'll sell it.

[TheBauer]

im looking forward to retreiving my trip wire mine.

ive got a night game on wed in a urban environment seeing as the 12g can be used indoors ill use it around the building entrances, between buildings

Corrected it for you

Anyway, not sure what the adaptor is exactly but afaik BFG's come with something you put in to allow use of 9mm blanks as well as 12g

I think its the metal ring under the cap of those BFG's

Lovely bits of kit, and the reason I now carry a pair of mini wire cutters in my vest....

[Rob15]

I'm sure people would love you for cutting their trip wires, ever heard of stepping over them?
It invloves lifting one leg up and moving it forwards over the wire, and doing the same with the other

Or you could just set them off or disarm them.

Which leaves the mine for the rest of my team to trip? Good plan.

Sporting thing to do is to cut the wire at the furthest point from the mine, so they only lose an inch or so of fishing line.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Setting them off kills me.

Disarming? What do you think the wire cutters are for?

Seriously though, disarming the mine is more than likely to lead to it going off in your hands. I use them myself and I NEVER disarm them if they've not been tripped at the end of a game, but instead trip them myself.
