Quake's exactly correct....I've followed this thread with some amusement.

First of all, all grenades (live ones) have all their data stamped on them in yellow paint.

As to left handed grenades.....the military is never kind to lefties (ejection port on weapons, machine gun firing, etc)....with grenades lefites simply hold the grenade upside down.

Lol, you don't need to use the code format. Use the quote format.

Anyways, like half of you have been in the military or something... Wow. I actually want to join the Army anyways! :)

It's a pain to frag if you're a lefty.

I think thats stupid.
How much money does it cost to make lefty grenades as opposed to righty grenades?

Probably about $0.01 per grenade.

Or you could make someone have their job to pull the pins out of the righty and then put em in as lefty.
then have 2 boxes of nades (or however u distribute nades) one marked righty and one marked lefty

Think about it this way: It takes an extra 2 minutes to fix a mistake, but if you throw farther and more accurately with one hand over the other, and it is a life and death situation, don't u think that extra 2 minutes could make a huge difference?

yeah, it doesn't quite work that way. When you are in a firefight, you don't have the time or ability to look for lh or rh grenades.....

Default Re: The right way to store a grenade

okay.......that'd be fine.....NOT (God I love Borat).

In combat, anything can happen, and when you can you recomnolidate and redistribute ammo.........so you'd be like "Anyone have another LH grenade?"

The fact of the matter is, everything in the military is made for RH people
