There used to be an exploding paint grenade. It was an M69 made by strange ordinance, but this is going back 15 years. It was taken off the market because it, well, exploded.
Some dude in my highschool back then pissed me off to the point that I tossed one in the sunroof of his car. It wasn't pretty lol

@AlphaUltima: I don't know if it would "be" a riot but I am sure it would "cause" a riot. XD

Just don't leave it sitting under a p bridge, the police will find it and call in a bomb threat.

Those vandal kids are going to be toast with this gizmo. I'll need to mount it inside the mailbox so it goes off when they open it.

Note to self: Don't forget to remove it from the mailbox early Monday morning before the postman drives by...

Dont they have something like this already, that supposedly, they slip into money bags during a bank robbery, which then explodes, coloring all the money and the robbers?

@qbrad: Yes, but from what I have seen/understand, they are almost like paint "balloons".

I'd use it to paint my bathroom. Then I'd be able to drop a different type of bomb in there...

I miss those sharp metal toys that I enjoyed as a kid. The most that would happen is I hurt myself if I stepped on one in the dark, but I'd never get the shit kicked out of me for using it in the house.

Paint ball yes. Other applications? No. Not many that'll be useful. And I hope they don't make it to look like a real grenade. Otherwise we'll start seeing these on TV in schools too.
