That 308 blank blew out sideways. I would definitely not mount that anywhere near head level. I just ordered all this gear recently from Fith Ops. I also got the bear deterrent shells and Launcher. The bear deterrent shells can also be used with the 12 ga. alarm. It would be particularly handy to protect your food supply from prowling bears. For campers or other outdoorsmen, I would recommend both, the launcher and the trip alarm for the bear deterrent shells. Think of it this way. You have a trip alarm set with a bear deterrent shell. A bear tries to get to your food but is startled by the shell going off and he runs away...BUT...he is hungry, and his nose and empty stomach are telling him to go back and try again. If the bear returns while, or before you finish setting another deterrent shell with the trip wire, you can fire one from the launcher and immediately reload another shell in the launcher. It doesn't hurt to also have some bear spray and a 44 magnum...for the really persistent and stubborn bear.

We defiantly recommend securing it with screws or nails, over wrapping it with string, so it won't fly out like that.

well once the Alarm goes off , that's your signal to get your firearm ready, I would think.

Use 12 ga MAGNUM blanks. Much better bang. Also water proof them with primer sealer and Lexel caulk at the business end.

well glad you showed that, I've contemplated on getting these, just curious of the levels of sound. I have seen they have the pepper spray ones now also. great idea. Thank you.

Is it safe to launch the flare from your hand as a pen flare?

You can yes. We do it often when testing. I recommend wearing ear protection as it's very loud when that close. Are are designing one that's easier to hold in the hand to set off and it will be released in 2024.

How long the primer lasts in the weather will depend on the severity of it and the type of primer. Most cases, it should last for days without any issues. If you expect a lot of wet weather for a long period of time, I recommend covering the primer with a waterproof material. You can even use our 12g waterproof blanks.

Where do I buy the blanks?

There are other videos of people trying it. It doesn't much since the case does not offer much compression and the blast has no focus. Now adding a piece of 4 inch pipe to the setup...

What if I put a real 12 gauge shell in it? Maybe make a video of that

Someone else on YT already did. It basically does the same thing, but bbs also spill out. Because there is no barrel the bbs don't project outward.

They are all around 130dB, 12g being the loudest. You can get larger 12g blanks, that can go upwards of 170dB.

I recommend local gun stores or looking online. I recommend you get 22s and use our 22 adaptor instead, as they are easier to get. We sell both on our other website FithOps.com.

interesting, along the lines of the 308 blank, do you make one in 5.56mm blank? or can a 5.56mm blank be used with the 308 blank?

You might be able to get 5.56mm in with the 308 adapter, by modding it to fit. Bur I have not tried it myself.
