Thanks for information. But...too expensive! If my memory is certain, I bought this only 600yen.
I recalled when I was a student, the senior came to my apartment. I set a booby trap using this in the rest room by the joke.
He was seriously angry.

600 Yen
Prices over here are much higher for everything modelgun related. Even buying direct from Japan has become much more expensive for us now thanks to the poor value of Sterling.
I bet the victim of your booby trap was very seriously angry

Good question jon
I don't know to be honest, is a toy grenade classed as a Realistic Imitation Firearm

They shouldn't be covered as it is all about firearms
From wikipedia (yes i know wikipedia is sometimes wide of the truth mark )
Quote :
A firearm is a device, often designed to be used as a weapon, which projects either single or multiple projectiles at high velocity through a controlled explosion
grenades, mines, bombs etc should be OK but didn't the VCR change some of the rules around blank rounds

I've often wondered what these cap grenades sound like when they go off
