Description
ACM M203 40mm Gas Grenade (84 Rounds – Polymer – Black)
This ACM 40mm gas grenade is a reusable launcher shell for M203-style and other 40mm airsoft grenade launchers. It holds up to 84 BBs, and when fired it releases them in a single, wide spread, making it a powerful tool for clearing rooms, flushing out entrenched players and breaking stalemates.
The shell has a black polymer body, keeping it light, and it can be refilled with gas and BBs again and again, which makes it far cheaper to run than single-use pyrotechnics.
How it works
A 40mm gas grenade is charged with gas and filled with BBs. When it is loaded into a launcher and the launcher’s firing pin strikes the shell’s valve, the stored gas is released all at once and drives the BBs out together. The result is a cloud of BBs rather than a single shot.
The number of BBs you load and the gas you use both affect the spread and range; follow the instructions supplied with the shell and your launcher.
In the game
Grenade shells are most effective at short to medium range, especially when fired into rooms, through doorways or at players behind cover. Always check your site’s rules on 40mm launchers and grenades, as many sites have specific rules on when and how they can be used, and some require a minimum engagement distance.

Compatibility

Care and maintenance
Store the shell with a little gas in it to keep the seals supple, and put a drop of silicone oil on the fill valve occasionally. Never overfill.
Clean out any dirt or broken BB fragments after use, and check the shell for cracks before each game. Use only clean, good quality BBs.
Who is it for?
This shell is for grenadiers and support players who use a 40mm launcher and want an inexpensive, reusable way to put a cloud of BBs on target.
Please note: a launcher, gas and BBs are not included. Always wear suitable eye and face protection when using airsoft replicas.
