It's time for an update! You guys loved my original smoke grenade comparison where I was comparing the IWA vs Enola Gaye, two popular airsoft smoke grenade distraction devices.
You can watch that original video here:
• Smoke Grenade Comparis...
Today, I'm comparing THREE different smoke grenades:
IWA International to Enola Gaye 18x and Mil-X
The EG18X is the same size as the regular EG18, but the smoke output is delivered in a much shorter time. It’s popular with film-makers, in combat simulation, and with photographers.
Enola Gaye Mil-X Smoke Grenade: This military style fly off lever smoke grenade has a military pin with a burn time of 60 seconds which produces a massive amount of smoke.
M14 Smoke Deployment Device: This is close to a real military smoke grenade as you can get! These grenades have an authentic fly-off lever. You simply pull the pin, deploy the unit by dropping/throwing the device to a safe distance away. Once the lever is released, there is about 3.5 second delay and the smoke deployment device will emit stream of high-density White smoke for 40 seconds.

What do you think, which one is best for price, size and smoke output?

You really should try the enola gaye SD75 It's crazy. If you think the Mil-X is "the big boy" you'd be very surprised.

The best smoke greade I ever saw was one I bought 30 years ago(how did I get so fucking old?) From a shop in tempe az called the Command Post. It was a green cardboard tube with bright orange writing and it had a little wire with a finger loop at the end that you pulled out. I set this off at the place I was working at the time in Tempe AZ called Malibu Grand Prix and the main road was about 40 yds away from the place I tested it. The smoke was so thick it stopped traffic on the main road it was so much I got that OH Shit what did I do feeling and was just waiting for the cops to show up.

I have several MIL-X greens that my Uncle gave me a few years ago to add to my to-go bag and I was curious how much smoke the put out. Thanks for the video! Also, are you in San Diego? The background looks very familiar (looks like where the 805 and the 8 meet in Mission Valley) if not then ignore my question, just saw it and wanted to ask :)

I had a batch of about 20 IWA and I got a chance to try my buddies IWA 37mm launcher... we had a good smoke show with ours... used Red and Blue smoke and it was pretty thick and lasted about a minute... maybe the one you used was from the old batch that you had last video... purchase or request some new ones and see if theres a difference because the ones we used seemed to be perfect.

@CivilianWarrior Жыл бұрын

I did see the smoke devices had a different packing/label design. Maybe they did improve from what I had. The one I used was months old.
