QuietBlast DM-Replica Practice Grenade
A 1:1 replica of the German Bundeswehr standard hand grenade, made in Germany. Pull the ring, release the lever, throw — a 3–5 second delay, then a sharp bang at around 120 dB(A) at 1 m. Loud enough to be felt, quiet enough for indoor and CQB sites.
Category F1 pyrotechnics: you must confirm you are 18 or older before adding this item to your cart.
- Category F1 — legal from 18, ID checked on delivery
- Hazardous-goods compliant shipping to DE, AT, CH & EU
- Indoor and CQB approved — no hearing protection required
Built for repetition, not for spectacle.
Category F1 — sold to anyone 18+
A tuned charge holds peak sound pressure at roughly 120 dB(A) at one metre: realistic for indoor drills and inside the F1 limit, so no permit or licence is required.
Genuine lever mechanics
Pull ring, spoon and spring behave exactly like the issued article. Muscle memory built here transfers directly.
Built to order, batch traceable
Every unit carries a batch code. No warehouse ageing, no inconsistent charges, geometry improvements ship immediately.
Built as a consumable
Priced and packaged for resupply. Squads run 6- and 12-packs; refill kits keep the BB configuration cheap.
Approx. 120 dB(A) at 1 m — loud enough to matter, legal to buy.
The QuietBlast DM-Replica is classified as a Category F1 pyrotechnic article: the lowest hazard class, intended for use in confined areas including inside buildings. In the EU, F1 articles may be sold to anyone aged 18 or over — no permit, no licence, no special paperwork. Every unit is tested to a peak of roughly 120 dB(A) measured at one metre, which stays inside the F1 limit while still delivering a bang your team reacts to.
What ~120 dB(A) @ 1 m feels like
A hard, sharp crack — comparable to a close thunderclap. Disorienting inside a room, but it drops off quickly with distance: at 10 m you are down to roughly 100 dB(A).
Why the measuring distance matters
Loudness claims are meaningless without a distance. We quote 1 m — the strictest common reference. Products advertised at 5 m or 8 m sound bigger on paper than they are in the room.
Still wear hearing protection
F1 compliant does not mean risk-free. Use hearing and eye protection, never hold after lever release, and keep bystanders outside the throw area.
- Normal conversation60 dB(A)
- Airsoft AEG at 1 m85 dB(A)
- QuietBlast DM-Replica @ 1 m120 dB(A)
- Jet engine at 50 m130 dB(A)

Values are indicative peak sound pressure levels for orientation. QuietBlast figures are measured at 1 m under test conditions; real-world readings vary with room size, surfaces and weather.
