So, this is the topic, click the link to get all the intel:Flashbangs
The questions are:

• Can they be useful for scenarios despite the fact that they are more of a noise maker than a FG?
• At 'safe' sound levels(110db vs the real steel's 180db), are they enough to do more than get opfor's attention? 
• What other thoughts might you have about this product?
  

Do they throw anything, and do they reload ?
