I am looking into geting a few of the Tornado Gernades but I have heard a few rumors that they like to just shot into the ground more often then the 360 radius they brag about hitting. Anybody have any info or stories to back up them working well or crappy?

They need to be airborne to achieve the 360 degree spread.
Save your money and get one/some of the VFC grenades.

I had one for a few months (until promptly losing it in a snowbank in the first few minutes of a match ) and really liked it. Gotta keep it well lubed tho or the timing gets thrown off.

Thanks guys, I had watched all the video clips and demo on it but I was hearing those rumors but I got it all figured out. Where they work and where they don't.

In cqb it might work, but in woodland play it doesn't do squat. I saw a guy on Fox toss one of those from atop one of the bunkers at NW5 at someone on Echo, and though he was only 5-10 feet away from it he outran the detonation - the bb's didn't really go anywhere since they couldn't penetrate through the grass.

It needs to be airborne for the rotating effect. Thats why the VFC ones are better, because they dont NEED to rotate, and instead of shooting all the BB's out of two openings, it shoots one BB out of each of its 74 openings. It doesn't need to rotate or ANY of that shit. BUY THEM INSTEAD. Second suggestion.

I used and had VFC gernades used against me in the Farmington CQC games. I liked them but at the same time I wasn't the biggest fan. THey didn't have a steady set of time and they didn't always shot all the rounds. I am really planning on using the gernades for CQC only. I might get a few VFC ones for outdoors and use Tornados indoors or something

My only complaint about the VFC grenades is that they aren't powerful enough, which would probably solve the not all rounds shooting problem. Ive had them blow up in my hands and barely felt anything. As far as timing just make sure you move the timer pin after you set it to the time you want when your resetting it otherwise the timing is pretty consistent.

The Tornado's are just as weak. The dudes at AATV did a review of them, and set one off in there had with minimum damage. "If you are wearing full gear, you probably won't feel the hit."
