I recently ordered two powder shot mines and got them yesterday. Hopefully you all find this useful.


I was happy to see the mines when i first took them out of the box. I was a little bit surprised at how small the mines are.

Here are some pictures of the mine.

Heres a picture of the top of the mine.
Heres a picture of the bottom of the mine.
Side view
Another top view to compare the size of the mine to my hand. I think its a little bit smaller then the size of a cd.
heres a picture of the mine in two.

You fill the mine with either green gas or co2. Green gas isn't a very loud "bang" as madbull said. Co2 I believe will make it louder.

The valve is in the middle you have to reset the mine after it goes off by pushing the valve about a cm in then fill it with green gas. Then you screw the top of the mine back on. You can carry the mine around without having it blow up on you if the safety ring is in place. To arm it you take out the safety ring. Put flour or any other powder in the mine like so.

Then just screw the top of the mine back on and your good to go!

On the field use: I played a few night games with my mine and boy do i love it! I already have had 3 kills with it in one night. When you step on the mine you hear a pop about as loud as a party popper? Then you look down and you just see a small cloud of flour by your feet. This cloud will never get up to your knees. So you do not have to worry about the powder getting in your gun. The powder only gets about little less than a foot high. I also tried putting a stick about 3 feet long over the mine so when you step on the stick it will trigger the mine to blow up. You really can put anything you wanted over the mine. It doesn't have enough power to shoot sticks up or anything like that.

Pros:

You can get people out without even shooting them
Is dark green so it isn't easy to see
You can put grass, leaves, sticks over the mine to hide it
Safe and easy to use

Cons:

A little to pricey but i think its worth it
It is also a little to small
