How to throw a grenade like a boss 

This guide demonstrates the fundamental safety mechanism of a grenade, specifically the M67 style. It highlights that the grenade will not detonate as long as the safety lever (spoon) is held in place, even after the pin is removed. The demonstration emphasizes proper grip and the function of the safety lever, reinforcing safe handling practices for training aids.

The US Army has approved the M111 offensive hand grenade, the first new lethal hand grenade since 1968. This grenade represents a significant update from the long-serving M67 fragmentation grenade. The discussion highlights the two primary ways explosives injure or kill: overpressure (blast wave) and fragmentation. The M111's introduction signifies a modernization of infantry ordnance.

This video provides an expert-level overview of the new M111 offensive hand grenade, detailing its design, function, and tactical advantages over traditional fragmentation grenades. The presenter, with apparent military experience, explains how the M111 prioritizes overpressure (blast wave) over fragmentation, making it safer for friendly forces in close-quarters combat and urban environments. It highlights the M111's effectiveness in enclosed spaces and its role in modern military operations.

This guide details the process of throwing a fragmentation-style grenade, emphasizing the importance of immediate cover and cautious post-throw inspection. It highlights the need for proper tactical gear and awareness of range safety protocols. The content is presented by a tactical content creator familiar with range operations.

This video demonstrates an experiment testing the impact of a bullet on an M67 fragmentation grenade. Fired from a suppressed AR-15, the grenade did not explode but released smoke. The expert explanation highlights that modern grenades require specific fuse-triggered detonation and stable explosives like Comp B or MDX are resistant to simple bullet impact. The demonstration emphasizes the importance of understanding explosive mechanisms and safe handling of ordnance.

This video demonstrates an experimental technique for deploying an M67 fragmentation grenade using a commercial drone over a frozen lake. The process involves modifying a drone with a custom release mechanism and carefully arming the grenade for remote detonation. The video also features a gold-plated AK-47. Instruction is provided by Edwin Sarkissian, a recognized content creator in the firearms and explosives space.

This video features Edwin Sarkissian, an experienced firearms instructor, conducting a unique bullet penetration test. He uses 12 Ozark Trail 12-inch cast iron skillets to determine how many rounds from various calibers and firearms, including 9mm, .45 ACP, 500 S&W Magnum, 7.62x39mm, 5.56mm, 5.7x28mm, and 12 Gauge slugs, can penetrate the cookware. The results offer practical insights into the ballistic performance of different ammunition types against a common household item.

This video from Edwin Sarkissian provides an expert-level demonstration of the Serbu BFG-50A rifle's capability against a railroad track. Sarkissian, a high-level firearms enthusiast, showcases the .50 BMG caliber's power with various ammunition types, including the specialized Raufoss Mk 211 Mod 0, highlighting its penetration through thick steel. The content offers valuable insights into terminal ballistics and the performance of heavy caliber rounds.

This video demonstrates a unique application of the X Products Can Cannon, a gas-operated launcher compatible with AR-15/M16 lowers, to launch an M67-style fragmentation grenade using .223 Blanks. Expert experimentalist Edwin Sarkissian showcases the process of loading and firing the device towards a frozen lake, highlighting the launcher's ability to hold the grenade's spoon in place until firing. The demonstration results in a significant explosion and ice shatter upon impact.

This guide details a ballistic test comparing a .50 Cal Spotter round against a 1.25-inch thick bulletproof glass panel using a Serbu BFG-50A rifle. The test, conducted by firearms enthusiast Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrates the significant destructive potential of specialized .50 BMG ammunition, highlighting differences in impact effects between incendiary spotter rounds and standard FMJ rounds. The expert-level demonstration emphasizes the importance of understanding ammunition types and their performance against protective materials.
