A reusable simulated weapon device includes a holding chamber and an expansion chamber for receiving expanding gas. A shuttle is slidable between a closed position that blocks communication between the holding chamber and the expansion chamber and an open position that allows communication. A pilot valve allows pressurized gas in the holding chamber to drive the shuttle into the open position. A firing pin opens the pilot valve. The firing pin has an armed position, in which a protrusion engages with a recess to hold the firing pin against a spring. The firing pin can be released from the armed position in response to an impact to the device. When the firing pin is released, the spring drives the firing pin to actuate the pilot valve, causing the shuttle to slide from the closed position to the open position to allow gas to move into the expansion chamber.

A digitally controlled hand-tossable explosive delivery receptacle comprises a ruggedized reusable compartment enclosing a digital circuit and a disposable cartridge holding one or more explosive chemical agents and a primer. The disposable cartridge is configured to be mounted to the ruggedized reusable cartridge, and a high-strength bulkhead incorporated into the reusable or disposable compartment that separates the digital circuit from the chemical agents. The reusable compartment is sufficiently ruggedized to withstand the ignition of the primer and the detonation of the chemical agents to be reused with one or more additional disposable cartridges. In one implementation, the delivery receptacle uses a commercial airbag initiator as the primer, which is arranged in relation to the one or more chemical agents so that when the initiator is activated, it generates a pressure wave that expels the one or more chemical agents from the grenade.

A training hand-grenade comprises a housing optionally interconnected with a safety lever for activating the train grenade. The aforesaid train grenade accommodates at least one blast simulator selected from a group consisting of a speaker for generating an acoustical blast imitation, one or more light emitters, a smoke generator and any combination thereof. The train grenade comprises a processor, intercommoned with a power supply and the blast simulator, configured to operate the blast simulator in one of two or more preset modes of operation. Each of the modes of operation is characterized a predefined combination of blast acoustic parameters, and optionally also light and smoke effects.

A toy grenade, designed for launching large numbers of plastic BBs at once, consists of a cylindrical shell with an O-ring interface. The cylindrical shell has circumferentially angled guide portions that allow the O-ring to flex inwardly when moved towards the remote ends. As a result, users can safely unload all the BBs if they wish to do so.

An automatic association system for automating an association of a plurality of devices in a battlefield simulation system. A network polling mode of each of the plurality of devices is initiated. At least one other of the plurality of devices is detected. A movement of the device and the at least one other of the plurality of devices is correlated. A device profile associated with the device is correlated with a movement over time profile of a platform. The device and the at least one other of the plurality of devices are determined to be on the platform based on the movement and the correlation of the device profile with the movement over time profile. The device is authenticated based on the determination and a personal area network between the device and the at least one other of the plurality of devices is established based on the authentication.
