Oh man, the Easter egg hunt for the kids will never be the same
lmao
Ha! Now your giving me ideas on that "Golden Egg"! Very cool!
lmao
Big Beautiful Bearded Bastard Operator From Hell As usual I'm replying to a really old comment. But if you ever see this, know that you just made an old jarhead's belly jiggle from pure unadulterated laughter..
You just made my holidays alot hetter
This was very informative.
My inner city apartment is now completely secure.
@Nasim Aghdam Remember #2 Do not taste
Having hard time finding the correct tops, any recommendations?
maybe you can put those around your garden to scare of the deer away, just a thought.
Kurt Kenehan That's a win right there! thanks
no problem it pays off remembering the stuff you say in your vids
Kurt Kenehan I've tried that, deer see the wire.I've used different color of braided line the deer still see it?
Lorne Shields Firearm news aka Shotgun News they have em👍
jeff schnablegger HELLO Boise, I don't see many of us commenting on stuff out here. I'm up the Road aways from you a couple hours.
I used to make something similar with old grenade fuses when I was in the Marines. I used M16 and M60 blanks and fitted to right height and taped them so the hammer would hit the primers. My Marine buddies either hated them or wanted to know how to make them for field use.
Born2Late Thank you for your service, I turn 18 in a month and plan on in listing to the marines
@@steamy7860 *in listing*
Steamy don’t worry bud. With that spelling you’ll fit in great with the marines.
I was just talking to an old Marine buddy of mine about the time I did basically the same thing you did, but I didn't have tape so had to use some Wire I found laying around during an exercise on Pendleton back in the late 80's. Fun Times, Semper Fidelis!!
@@JamesSmith-lx6qm you should join the air force with that lazy attempt at an insult
Just made four of these. A few tips to share. Some of the grenade fuses can be tapped out with a good size nail. Just gently tap the nail into the botttom of the fuse device. I opened my steel vice just enough to allow the fuse to pass down. You can use a piece of 2x4 also. The tube shaped fuse will pop out. Saving the hastle of drilling it out from above. Then the 12 Gauge primers will drop right in. Also, my springs on the firing pin were so strong I could not just pull them back with my fingernail like the video showed. Maybe he got lighter springs cause mine were not easy to pull back to set the cotter pin. I also cĺeaned the gunk out of the tube below real good. This will allow for the primer noise to blow out at maximum noise. Without any restrictions of old burnt stuff. You will see what I mean. Have fun, be safe !
Where did you find them that's kool. It would be good for camping.
Where can I buy those grenade fuses today
GREAT! I appreciate the time you took to make this video. I had an experience this weekend while camping - a stranger roamed up and scared the living daylights out of me! I looked for perimeter alarms and they were quite expensive. This is the best idea I have seen. This is going to my permanent camp.
fishing line would be better, harder to see, and less prone to rips and the weather, still a nice Idea tho.
ThelagKing Strikes good point. Thanks
Coll
Mono would be good line.. dark braid might even be better since its not as reflective and is stronger. Im thinking stealth camping here =/
Sam Clark nu nu
until the sun hits it. also mono stretches, they might notice it before setting it off. some sort of neutral color braided line is what id use
I love how he takes out the time just to give you a warning so anyone doesnt hurt them self. awesome video.
The blackpowder version of this has been available for awhile from Dixie gun works. It works on a percussion cap and has a screw base. Designed to be triggered by a window or door opening
DrBones NurseAmy you have no idea how appreciative we are for this video... Thank you, thank you, thank you for doing it!
I have no idea how this mix up came about!
Also,..... there are very cheap window alarms you can purchase at the Dollar Store,...... simply mount one,... use a string to pull the magnet away (simulating the window opening) and the piercing shriek will alert you for a looooooong distance. The perpetrator (typically) will NOT be able to silence it as the tripwire will have pulled it away,.... and since you camouflaged it with paint,... it will not be found anytime soon. It will 'alarm' until broken,.... or the battery runs out!
Or if it rains...
those are great when it's midnight and you're in bed, gotta run outside and plug it back in.
No Thanks.
edmond vodochodsky I used to use those window alarms on my refrigerator to keep the dog out. He knew how to open it with his paw. Lost a lot of lunch meat to that damned dog.
Those are cool for a lot of things. After tinkering with about thirty dollars of the dollar store ones over time, I've made my own magnetic switches for all sorts of things like secret invisible "keyholes" for my car and house and hidey places to put cool things in.
Too bad someone else started successfully selling secret gun storage before I looked it up. They're already on to RFID actuated ones now. My little handmade magnet safes wouldn't have a place in the market now. haha
Still go make them for friends, though. They don't look like the ones that are mass produced.. You know. . the ones that every thief can look up online before they break into your house so they know what to look for.
They're junk. Might work if you could actually hear the things. I tried some
A great idea.! You could use it for a bait package to teach "porch pirates" a lesson. Might be a good idea to hacksaw the treads off the trigger to further "de-mill" the trigger for legal reasons. Without treads, there is no way to just screw it into something, to trigger an explosive devise. (Hopefully viewed as LESS likely in the eyes of the local L.E.O) Might be a handy argument if ya end up in court having to explain things to a judge. Thanks for the awesome video. Long Live the Republic!
We did this using rat traps, fishing line, finishing nails and shotgun shells (with the shot removed) back in the late 90s for an alert system on our ranch as we grew THE BEST outdoor cannabis in NorCal!
Say The N Word, NPC Nah he should be fine. Statute of limitations and all that.
@Say The N Word, NPC they already shot my good buddies dog. I don't grow these days..too much work. Especially when I can just stroll down to my local cannabis shop and purchase some herbs etc over the counter.
@J Ah, see now...you and everyone else ASSUMES because I said the 90s that what I was doing was illegal but the truth is that we had a totally legal grow after it was legalized for medicinal purposes back in 1998.
I appreciate the concern for my freedom nonetheless. Cheers!
Sootch, either grind off the threads or saw off the threaded section all together. Absolutely de-mil'd after that. Great heads up, though. Thanks for the info.
This is Gold!.... gonna rig my whole property with these, 9 times out of 10, i'll trip em myself... nice video👌
Absolutely THE BEST idea for a trip yet
Just weave fishing line over trails like a spiderweb. It'll rustle the brush and they'll probably let out a few explicatives. If you are extra paranoid tie some cans to the sides or rig up a Thunder-B co2 Airsoft flashbang to a tripwire.
Mark Livingston “Tangle Foot” great technique for stalling a small unit encroachment.
I find "mine field" & "unexploded ordinance" signage to be extremely effective. Biological, chemical & nuclear contamination signs, not so much...
Thanks bro, this is perfect if you're out camping alone. Construct a perimeter of these & maybe rig one or 2 with one of those pin pull smoke grenades & you're set!
A guy near where I live used a set up like this to dissuade visitors to his property. A Border Patrol agent tripped one during a chase. He freaked out when he realized that he was surrounded by trip wires. A Fed bomb disposal unit was called in to disable his "early warning system". Never saw the dude again.
... It sis it's job ...
Now that's funny because they are INERT and perfectly legal as long as you are NOT making a explosive device to cause harm and only useing shotgun primers in them for a perrimiter security alarm on your own property.
It sounds to me the person that didn't come back was either growing something illegal or they were messing with explosives other wise if it was only the INERT smoke top and one little 12 gauge primer that they got him for now doesn't that sound a bit like a tyrannical government agency to you???
Great story but *IS IT TRUE??*
@@howardfortyfive9676 Most likely not
Yeah’ like that guy in maryland who got a sheet of LSD, wet in his pocket’ then thought he was a glass of OJ’ no one ever saw him ether, never ever again..???
What a cool idea. Thumbs way up!!!!! I just bought 2 toppers, I will have to try this out.
I like using these devices. They are effective and inexpensive to if you lose a few your not at a huge loss. I myself like to use the spoon attachment. I also like to use a can or PVC to set them. I fix the can/PVC horizontally attach a spring to a fixed object then into the end of the PVC and attached to the bottom of the device. Hook the wire to the device (not the pin) running out the front and across any suspected paths of approach. To arm it I pull the pin and slide it into the tube with the spoon holding down the hammer. If the wire is pulled the device slides out the front releasing the spoon and discharging the primer to alert you. If some one cuts the wire, the spring pulls the device out the back of the tube releasing the spoon and discharging the device alerting you......win win. *Note...affix the pin to the tube by wire so it is there when your ready to disarm and travel. Everything stores inside the tube for packing. Makes deploying and moving easier. In a desert or rocky environment where you might not be able to affix it to anything you can use flex ties to attach to rocks, or even just wedge the tube between rocks. All purpose all terrain......:) Semper Fi.
I wish I could picture what you're describing here
Yes this is a very good signaling devise to set up around your place. It would be hard to beat this loud system for letting you know someone is around. Nice job! : )
A tip tie a fish swivel hook to your line then quick attach to your trip device pin
Nice idea. Now to see if I can get the tops of smoke or hand grenades. The rest can be found easily. Cheers!!
have you ever tried the .22 squibs for concrete anchoring guns?
It does not strike the rim so it wont trigger
@@russellross6197 it takes about 5 minutes with a Dremel to fix that.
If your hole fits a shotgun primer, it'll take a ramset blank. #1s are about as loud as the primer. #4's are loud AF. Those need to get knocked out w a screwdriver from the bottom though & sometimes they "blossom" when go off
we used those ramset to anchor aluminum sills to steel i beams, i couldnt believe it worked but it did. amazing, depaul building in chicago
Now this is slicker than snot on a door knob. I need to find me some of these little jewels.
tweekers all around the world are taking note of this.
Excellent! Thank you. This is type of educational video we Patriotic Americans need; perhaps more than ever. Thank you.
Wow! I'm impressed thank you so much I have woods in my back yard and was concerned
Love this. I like these little perimeter defense video. I tried something similar to your Mouse Trap alarm, but this one looks more fun. I'm going to give it a try.
Maybe try and use some dark green braided fishing line (braid doesnt stretch)
parker benz use kevlar thread, it neither stretches, is incredibly strong, and is virtually invisible unless you are looking for it. But, by strong, I mean super strong! It's been used by the military for years.
... I use "Cajun Line" fishing line, 14 lb test, no stretch and some have been up for over a year and not degraded by the weather or sun light ... it is red on the roll and invisible to man and beast in the field and does a great job of pin pulling when contacted by any one or thing crossing the line ... also great for fishing, disappears in the water ...
Light green braided spider wire works awesome for perimeter alarm trip wire.
The Predator Jungle Trap teamwork scene comes to mind. "If it bleeds, we can kill it".
He's using the trees.
Illumination flares with the parachute would be very cool.
Way better than your mouse trap invention, haha.
MrIloveoldschool You've gotta start somewhere : )
It's a split pin, not a cotter pin & it's "taut" not "taunt"
That is in fact a cotter pin, and a split pin. Pasted from the dictionary. a split pin that is opened out after being passed through a hole.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@panzermacher and you were tauting him, weren't you? :-)
Excellent bloopers. Nice to make your acquaintance.
good solid knot. ties square knot...
wasn't even a square knot
Drew Martin that's a "two half hitches" knot. Be prepared!
Make string tau-N-t.
...2 ‘half-hitches’
Granny knot
Enjoyed the video. After seeing it, I ordered 4. Going to try them on my bear problem this spring.
I need to mount one to my wallet to keep the kids and wife away
M Ray even that wont help
those do work I have them.worth it specially when you're camping and you need in Bear country is really good let you know who's out there 20 - 40 yards out of way from your camp
The bloopers are priceless. LOL
Lightweight and cheap so you can carry quit a few versus the heavier, more expensive, commercial units. I have been doing this for over thirty years and they do the job if placed properly.
to go further on my response to Richard Lee's comment about adding a spoon, We have all seen how the BATFE flipflops on their stances. If you wish to keep yourself clear of their BS, two mods would remove this device even further from the detonator classification that makes the loose fitting primer a requirement. First would be grind or file off the threads from the base of the head, and second would be remove the spoon pivots from the head. This would prevent any overzealous agent or power hungry assistant director from proclaiming that it is a detonator because it has a hammer in it. Also removing the threads will make it possible to easily slip a finger cot on the base of the head to keep it dry and bugs out, you van take a piece of plastic such as from a disposable plastic container, and gently heat it with a heat gun so it drops down over the head (Yes I am intentionally not using the term detonator because it is no longer a detonator) and conforms to its shape, making a cover, that you can punch the holes for the release pin and NOTCH for the nail , if you do this, make sure you add a spacer on to the nail such as a nut or a heavier pop rivet with the shaft removed, so the cover can easily be flung off by the hammer, trimming it at an angle from the top front leaving a small lip, down lower on the back where a spoon would lay would be most effective, allowing use in rain with no issues.
They are INERT and made into perimeter alarms by adding a shotgun primer is all and for use on private property,
you sound a bit paranoid to me...LOL
That would make a great bear alarm for camping. Might even scare away boobo before he gets into your stash. 🐻
Very cool Sootch! I got to get some of these to set something up to warn me when my wife's coming when I'm with my girlfriend!! Sweet! 👍🏻💨
sootch you get excited tripping the wire. you got point.
Imagine such a device inside an Amazon box, left on your front steps. Imagine the reaction of a package thief grabbing that box.
Imagine...
Great idea! I would love to see that!
Thanks for this vid, I like this. It's useful. Not cramming expensive gear down throat, just very useful, helpful information.
Can't buy these in California😤
I'd like to see one as cannon trigger/fuse...
The fith ops one you can. Google it
Try dixiegunworks.com
Great video as all ways! Love the out takes. Show that most thing never go as planed!!!
Thanks!
Cool! How much did you pay for those?
Logic Bob $5 each already drilled and primer spent removed.
SensiblePrepper Do you have and address or link where we can get those??
Jerry Morris oldsargesdropzone.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=13
***** THx!!
Yeah I searched the page link and only found 100 ct heads for $85 which also comes with a bunch of other parts we don't need for this. The heads look different too. Longer. Not sure if this is the same thing
Nicely done sir. Featuring this on my channel for sure.
“....and that’s how I ended up here your honor....”
Bloopers and out takes are *ALWAYS FUN!!*
The price of these are about to go thru the roof! It's all your fault! hahaha
They are already $10.00 each on EBay!!!
Becky Sams 3%er I cant even find them on EBay now.
@@SmuggestOfRats Bet you have 100 of them, hmmm?
James deGuzman they are the 12g pin and chain spring looking ones?
Just completed a dozen of these. I had to go with the 209 black powder primer as my local store were out of 12 gauge primers and to be honest I believe the black powder 209 primers might be a little louder as they are designed to burn faster and hotter than its counter part. I'll also add that when setting them up you keep the trip line approximately 1 foot off the ground as you don't want every little critter tripping it such as squirrel, possum, raccoon and such. But let me assure you if you have any non welcome guest attempting to sneak in your camp at night this will definitely take the element of surprise out of there hands and put it back in your favor.
+Rogue Wolf Survival where did you find the grenade heads? I cant find them anywhere
+CHINPAZO my local Army surplus store in which I'm the manager lol
+Rogue Wolf Survival does your store have a website
+CHINPAZO sorry we don't yet but I located this for you hope it helps

what about the primer sitting exposed to the weather?
Sickof Liars Probably clear nail polish would do the trick
SensiblePrepper Would there be a problem adding the spoon on top? Seems like that might protect it from the morning dew..
Sickof Liars Maybe nail a coffee cup over it .
Yeah that won't stick out lol

You can use a primer sealer.
I thought of doing this years ago, so happy someone tried it. Looks awesome!
where did you buy those?
I have a few for sale. Contact me here or leave a way for me to contact you. Thanks
J Carter how much are you selling for, probably want 3 or 4.
I don't have a lot. Please give me a email address and Ill contact you.. My PM is not working very well. Sorry for the delay I had to eat.
I have a few. Starting to get them ready for a friend to take to gun show. Iwill sell for $5.00 each not prepped or cleaned plus postage. Just let me know. Thanks
j carter I want to buy some.
its a great way to reload smoke grenades. that way you don't have to light a fuse...cheaper than spending $80-100 dollars as well.. you can also make trip flares as well.
Very nice. That's a good idea for bear country camping.
Oh, I LIKE this! This will keep the neighbor's dog in their own yard. their kids, too! and harmless.
Sootch: What a great idea to help keep bears out of your camp and avoid any complications that can arise from their visit! Especially a mother bear with cubs. Could also protect you valuables while camping from someone stealing them. But lets face it, the real reason these would be great to have is to keep Bigfoot out of camp and messing with you food, valuables and your life!!! lol But on a serious note, these could be a life saver when used propperly. Thanks so much for sharing with us because I was looking for an inexpensive way to keep bears out of camp without hurting any of them and without the costly expense of an electric fence. Thanks brother!! Great for hard to wake people that need to know something is going on in their camp too!
Of course, the primary problem with this method (or any audio or visual alert) is that you’ve also let the bad guy know you’ve been alerted, encouraging him to attack quickly before you, busy doing something else, can adequately respond. The best option alerts only you, leaving the bad guy surprised to later learn you’re ready for him.
sensible prepper WITH ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE OF KNOTS ;)))
When the pin is in direct contact of the hammer, the trip wire has to be hit very hard to pull the pin. Use the spoons to hold the hammer and the slightest touch of the trip wire will pull the pin.
I cut the spoons short and attach them to the head with a small cable so the spoon doesn't fly into the next county when it flies off.
I picked up a couple of those at a gun show in Columbia at the fairgrounds. I imagine you got them from the same vendor...
Great video. I was thinking of using Eye hooks instead of a screw in the field.
Thank you for posting. Knowledge IS POWER!!!
I attached one to my home made rabbit trap and snares so I hear when they are tripped. work great!
This was great. Im former Army and I enjoy your channel keep up the great work.
Just a note about these fuse body’s. There is a place that the safety handle or spoon fits on.
That part of the fuse body should be removed or cut away.
That should make it less of a grenade component. And remove the threads, so it can’t threaded into anything.
Great video!! I will do this for my garden and bee hive farm!! Quick question awesome looking watch your wearing!! What brand and model!! Thanks
I like this .It would nice to have if your out camping. Set up around your tent .you never know whats lurking around your tent .Maybe scare off Freddie?
I picked up some surplus claymores at the garage sale not long ago and set up a similar arrangement
Sootch is the Man!
Good video and info w/o all the
P/C WARNINGS.
this is a very timely and great idea because I have Bears around here and I don't I want them getting at my dog
Sootch !!! I didn’t even know you had a prepper channel !!!
A real attention getter! Nice wedding ring. Good vid. G.
love your parting words... Amen!
SensiblePrepper try using clear small diameter fishing line. Then it wont be so visible during daylight hours......love your channels.....
I know my pic is sideways im working on fixing that, but wow that is a great idea, I will be putting them on my property for sure thanks for the info. and " long live the Republic".
I took a pair of the Chinese snappers (they look like a miniature stick of dynamite) and placed a pair.under the toilet ring pads. Two, mind you.
About an hour later, granddaughter goes to the bathroom, got one bang.
Yea, the scream, and she knew who did it. "GRANDPA!!!"
Another hour, daughter goes in, and the other one went off for her.
Funny thing, I never went back to check the second one, but it worked better than I expected.
Thank you 4 the info, I'm a Vet, in the Civilian World now, diff't world. My American Flag, proudly displayed, gone in less than 12hrs, took the final oath at MEPS to swore and defend against all Enemies Foreign & domestic and fought for the USA. They don't care, Don't want to hurt anyone, I just want to secure my perimeter without violence; I'm so confused. Please help me; Bravo Six Out!
The deer and bears would set this off constantly at my bug out location.
Awesome ! Long Live The Republic!
even if you screwed in a grenade body and filled it with some sort of explosive the shotgun primer wont delay it so you would pull the pin an it would instantly blow. But on the other hand you could set a trap with live explosives and have a nice anti personal trap. Of course that is VERY illegal but it wouldent be bad to arm a perimeter with those in SHTF and or WROL.
You could use those snapper things from fireworks stores as well. Maybe put two or three on there. Not as loud but would scare off animals.
Awesome video. There are a lot of guys selling 209 primer trip alarms for $30+. I have a local shop that sells 5 heads for $20!!! Thanks!
very cool mate. Great thinking.
great idea. don't have a need at the moment, but its good to know.
A dozen of these and a dozen fishing yo yo's and you can cover a lot of water, same thing for squirrel hunts too.
Interesting. I see for safety and laughs. Thank u
If you can't get access to Shotgun Primer (like, let's say you live in canada and you don't have a PAL), there is always the .22 blank shell for the concrete nail guns
Like the outtakes !!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool.. Yes, God Bless America.
That is really cool.
I wish I had a source for them.
A very clear and descriptive video. Thanks
Hmmmm some thick pyro time fuse and some flash powder........BBBBOOOOOMMMM
Don't know how well wet primers will do, but a cool idea
