    Maybe it’ll become a thing like the Breaking Bad pizza house. Tourists will visit Altman’s house to re-enact the original molotov incident.

    I’m surprised someone hasn’t home built a bomb drone yet and then open sourced the design to let others do it. It can’t be that hard to 3d print some parts and put something together. Cheap drones could really be the equalizer that the people use.

      If you want a quadcopter type drone, just get one with a toggleable light, and wire the light switch to a motor that pulls the pin and drops a grenade. That’s how they do it in Ukraine.

        I think a flying wing could carry a better payload. A grenade isn’t going to do much against a house.

          Our houses are made of paper and shattered dreams. A grenade would fuck a modern American house wherever it went off.

            A typical hand grenade is anti-personnel. It works through blast pressure and fragmentation. It doesn’t do much damage to structures.

            Grenades throw fragments though. Sure it would cut through the dry wall, but I’m not sure if the explosion would cause a fire

              That’s what incendiary grenades are for. You could even get creative and mix together some napalm for poetic justice.

              In theory, of course.

          Depends on how you define damage. Structural damage? Probably not much. None of the frag is big enough to compromise anything load supporting. The blast pressure isn’t that much of an issue either, it will get absorbed by the drywall and released by windows. Financial damage though? You’re looking at replacing flooring, fixtures, walls, windows, and an inspection (and possible replacement) of electrical, gas, and plumbing systems.

            I think you’re over estimating the amount of damage a fresh grenade would do. You’re likely only hitting the outside of the house. That’s probably just some siding and some window damage.
