The industry-standard airsoft distraction bang

The Enola Gaye EG Mk5 Thunderflash is the iconic, industry-leading distraction pyro for airsoft. This simple strike-and-throw stick bang delivers a loud report and a white flash, perfect for disorientating opponents, clearing rooms and forcing a dug-in enemy to break cover, all subject to your site’s rules.

How it works

Ignition is by friction: twist off the safety cap, strike the exposed igniter head, then throw immediately. A 5-second fuse delay gives you time to place it, before a bang of around 120dB at 10 metres does the rest. At 200mm long and roughly 35g, it is easy to carry and deploy, and the construction is 99.5% biodegradable.

Use it safely and within the rules

Always keep to the 10m safety distance, never hold it once lit beyond the strike, and only use it at events that permit pyrotechnics. Follow marshal and site rules at all times.

Frequently asked questions

How do I use the Mk5 Thunderflash?

Twist off the safety cap, strike the friction igniter head like a match to light the fuse, then immediately throw it clear. It has around a 5-second delay before the bang. Never hold it once lit beyond striking.

How loud is it?

It produces roughly 120dB at 10 metres along with a white flash, a genuine distraction. Always observe the 10m safety distance and your site's rules.

Can you post this to me?

No. Pyrotechnics cannot be posted or shipped. This item is available for in-store collection at our site shops only.

Is there an age limit?

Yes. Pyro is strictly over 18s only. We sell it for the purposes of skirmishing only and may ask for a genuine defence for purchase.

Where can I use it?

Only at airsoft events that permit pyro, and always within site rules. The 5m to 10m distraction radius makes it popular for room clearing and objective play where allowed.
