I have heard the tippmann squad buster grenades stink, I have never used them myself. Instead I have heard Meteor shower grenades are alot better. To make your own grenade just take a waterballon and fill it with crayolah washable paint. |

squadbusters are garbage unless you through them perfect. and even then, they rarely work. we sell another brand at the store... i think their called atomic ordinance or something (i think). they are just water balloons really. ------------- Accuracy by Volume

You can do what everybody else said and fill a ballon with paint or go to another website and get a different grenade or mine |

| i have heard my friend making these ones where he makes gernades, he takes like 3 firecrackers and ties them together. he takes a styraphome cup(dont know how to spell it), and fills it with paint or maybe paintballs. then he puts the firecrackers into the cup with the fuses tied and in the top of the cup. take something and cover the top of the cup. then light and throw. it probably isnt the safest thing to use but my friend is a little on the crazy side. i wouldnt recommend this to anyone to try(you can as long as you dont throw it at anyone). make sure you dont use this idea nad that you dont throw them at people if you do. only throw them into the open. |

I have used almost every nade out there, with the exception of the meteor showers, and they all suck, squadbusters the most i think cause they were the most expensive, I have put up as well as many others "better, cheaper and more effective ways of making a paintball grenade".
