 Note on use: This product is primarily designed as a decorative or dummy element for LARP, simulation, training and/or similar applications. It additionally has a simple function for distributing BBs via Spring powered, which can be used for these applications in various ways. Please note that this is a low-cost item with a focus on optics, which is not designed for permanent or intensive use or regular functional use. The range, durability and load capacity are therefore limited. Use beyond the intended limits (e.g. heavy mechanical stress, use for other purposes or commercial use) can lead to damage and does not constitute a material defect in terms of the warranty. |
The M26A1 is a modern variant of the M26 series from the 1950s. It was used in various US military operations until the 1980s
The Begadi ECO grenade dummies / dummies with function are simple, mechanical dummies of well-known hand grenades for airsoft, MilSim, AS LARP or LARP / live role-playing. Made of robust plastic, these dummies are ideal for completing the outfit, for scenario games and / or LARP events and photo shoots.
The basic principle of these grenade dummies with Spring function is very simple: The body consists of 3 shells / outer shells that hold the 3 limbs (with Springs) inside. The 3 limbs can be filled with light airsoft pellets via a lid. When the safety pin is pulled, only the lever holds the shells in position. When the grenade is thrown, the limbs are released and eject the BBs from the body, similar to a catapult.

Diagram of throwing method
The Begadi ECO dummy grenades / dummies with function should also always be thrown in an arc, never directly (especially not against hard surfaces)! In addition to avoiding damage, the grenades also trigger more reliably this way and the scattering circle is wider!
 Practical tips for use: We have tested and used the grenades extensively under many different scenarios. These tests took place over several months, in cold and very warm temperatures, indoors and outdoors. It is advisable to load the grenades in such a way that there is still some space available, as this makes them rustle a little more, but the spread circle is significantly better. When used in the CQB, it has proven useful to roll or slide the grenades so that they hit a wall. This significantly increases the effective range in rooms and damage is less likely to occur. With a trip wire, the grenade can also be used as a trap / mine / booby trap if it is dropped from a height of about one meter using a trigger wire / thread. When used in the CQB, damage could be avoided by flattening the arc in which the grenade was thrown! Painting the inner parts red can make it easier to find the grenade in confusing terrain |
