Flash bang grenades

Flash bang grenades were designed to stun people. But they have a pretty bad safety record. The little bombs have dismembered at least one soldier and caused hearing loss in others.

It hurls flaming aluminum particles into the air, causing a bright flash without an accompanying shockwave.
