so flashbang out of the f5 can cannon!
When you run it makes me nervous! launching
thanks for joining me today guys this video is going to be a blast and it's made possible by our
friends over at acre gold go to getacregold.com and you can start investing in gold for as little

they start standing you these bars so you can start stacking them up in your safe
click the link down below to learn more now let's start blowing some stuff up with ordnance lab
okay guys dustin here and we have sean with ordnance lab and we are we've had a fun few
days yes we have blown up some trees brag grenades and other things but uh
what we have is a f5 can cannon but we can we forgot all the cans so sean said we have some
more fun stuff we can watch from it though we do and so what we're going to do is we did some
filming yesterday we're actually doing this out of sequence um we launched a flashbang out of an
als 09 single-use flashbang or sorry reloadable flashbang launched that out got some real hang
time it looked really cool with the in the evening light and so what we're going to do is we're going
to go out here we're going to try it with a pipe bomb here we're going to put a fuse in it
launch it out there and do that and then we're going to turn into a literal grenade launcher
this right here is a russian type body that we got but we have an interface with a real
m213 american grenade fuse same one you'd find on m67 fragmentation grenade
and the way it's going to work is we're going to drop it down here into the barrel we're going to
pull the pin on the grenade and then fire it so whenever it comes out the spoon comes off the
grenade goes flying down range and it goes boom it's crazy yeah so as we go along we'll show some
footage of us going out there and testing it to see how well the blanks worked we had a lot more
success with the factory blanks from these than we did with the ones that came with the x products
one we tried a couple of the factory loads from x products and it went like think like five feet
away that's a little scary yeah it would not have been acceptable looks like that the blanks from uh
uh f5 are actually much more powerful and they can actually lob the grenade but
you'll be able to see that in the video for how far it went downrange in the testing sounds bit
dangerous but hey you're the man to pull it off so we'll do it we're going to start off small
and safe this is actually this grenade they filled with a smoke solution allegedly allegedly oh crap
so anyway hopefully it doesn't flow up and it just makes a nice smoke
and it's a nice safe way for me to get started doing this all right
it's smoking it's smoking it landed right the road nice
kaboom
they may have broken the fuse yeah we've seen that before oh and there's a kinked fuse at the end boom.
- GEEZ!
and i was even thinking that
just like uh we have a thing of team building exercise is fun the first time you get someone
out with dynamite or whatever you throw it out i'm like ah they go right away and it's like uh you
can light it on fire um anyways so what happened with this is what happened with our we did another
video earlier where whenever it landed it kinked and it broke off the fuse right here so that's why
it didn't work sure do um yeah and that's one of the issues with doing it um we actually we don't
have any uh smoke grenades in stocks because we've uh there's been a shortage of them we got a bunch
of cs grenades but those right there are not that much fun to actually use um but this right here
is our attempt to do something on it didn't work out we always try to make sure we show both our
success and our failures on our channel because sometimes things work out and sometimes they don't
either way we're having fun launching cool stuff out of a can cannon yes indeed i'm gonna let shawn
do this one he's got more experience and i have a family i love at home. good luck Sean! yeah run away
big boom is that it yeah this is it right here we'll see strapping only won't we
it's almost yeah that's it oh there you go
well jake did a great job with this small yeah i mean he really like jake's gotten really good
at building pipe bombs it's kind of funny to be on the internet and be like yeah jake is a
you know freaking world-class pipe bomb builder but he's did a great job getting it to fragment
because oftentimes what'll happen is a pipe bomb will just like kind of open up and other times
it'll just be in big chunks flying around and other times like jake's gotten it down
really really well we've probably made 100 pipe bombs frag grenade and an f5 can cannon
pins gone
oh that didn't go very far
that one didn't go very far no it didn't oh my god it's on the video i say oh i was like oh
that didn't go very far like yikes that was close wasn't it yeah huh now when we practiced we got
him a little bit further yeah so i don't know it was pretty funny we haven't watched the video i
apologize we didn't get a chance really to explain what we're gonna be doing because we're losing
daylight but um it's pretty funny like i fired it i i was like okay that didn't go very well
could have thrown it further i literally could have thrown it further well you know we
oh well we of course we just cgi had faked it so the whole thing's been simulated um but
you can see what the grenade did it landed like literally we could have thrown it further so um
yeah yeah we've seen in other videos where we've launched you know launch it further we did a video
like this with the uh the x products where we loaded some really hot blanks so i don't want to
say anything bad about the um the F5 launcher just because this right here
could be dependent upon the blanks there's a lot of issues that are a lot of things that could have
been in there and if we were to do some hotter blanks like with our friend uh brian ryan not cody
um that's our way we refer to him always in our videos but like had he been here with
some of his hotter loads that right there could have probably gotten it further further yeah so
again there's a lot of variables that caused not or that could have caused it to not go this far
and again at the end of the day it was safe we launched it and the fuse worked as designed
with it coming off well the pipe bomb was heavier right yeah and it made it further same links yeah
who knows yeah i don't know but um the main thing is hey we got it away from us whenever it went off
and you always want to make sure that distances well your distance is your friend whenever you
deal with explosive ordnance and so you want to make sure that whenever it goes boom that you're
either very far away or you can't see it and so we got that wall right there that fired it
off and um i was very happy behind it especially whenever i was like oh it didn't go far like oh
crap oh boy i'm glad i went ahead and did that yeah so what we've got is it ordinarily the uh
the can cannon and the five f or five five f5 sorry adhd just get them at top
it don't matter yeah exactly well you get them from topshotdustin.com
dustin's website buy them but what it is is those right there controlled by atf is basically a signal and device
is uh because there's an exemption for anything that's a destructive device is exempted if it's
a signaling device and i believe that's how i have it's been a few years since i read up on it but i
believe that's how they got around it yeah it's not even a firearm because it's they're not you
can't chamber a live round it's to launch sodas and golf balls yeah and we have a lot of fun with
it that way yeah but whenever you start using it as a well fragmentation grenade launcher becomes
a destructive device now we have one that's in anderson that people call those poverty
ponies i prefer a classier term of ungulate of destitution to be registered one is a destructive
device and we use that one to lob grenades or we'll sometimes put a machine gun lower on it
because a machine gun can have whatever caliber it wants it's kind of funny to hack the matrix
with that but this right here since we're actually on our license premises as a manufacturer
of destructive devices we can assemble a weapon into a destructive device and then
unassemble it into a destructive device because your weapon will only be a dd
whenever it's being used for that particular system of like lobbying grenades and whatnot out
there so it's pretty neat to see the different you know all these little things with the regulations
and it's just like how the pipe bombs today we never had to register those because we
made the pipe bombs and the grenades here at our licensed premises and then destroyed them
and you can't register something that doesn't exist so there's no record of those items except
for with our explosives records like our amd books our acquisition of disposition books for our ffl
those won't have any record of it but our fel our federal explosives license records
will log that hey we manufactured a fragmentation grenade and then expended it on the same day and
that's how we keep track of stuff cool down so all right well thanks for having me out here guys go
check out ordinance lab we'll leave a link down below or up top on facebook and all that stuff
they do a lot of fun explosives and mythbusters and all that good stuff thanks for having me out
yeah well thanks for coming out dustin and we'll see you all again soon okay i love you bye-bye
