- description
One hundred and twenty BBs leaving a launcher simultaneously is genuinely difficult to defend against. This is the capacity where a shower shell stops being a novelty and starts being a tactical tool — enough volume to clear a room outright or pin a position while your team moves.
The purple anodised finish is not just cosmetic. Shells get dropped, thrown and left behind in undergrowth, and a bright body is far easier to recover at the end of a game than a black one. Given what a shell costs, that matters.
Construction is high-grade metal and polymer, and it charges with green gas like the rest of the range. It drops into any standard 40mm launcher and is refillable for as long as you own it.

Good to know before you buy
At this capacity you are into serious area-denial territory. The purple body is a practical advantage for finding a dropped shell — worth considering if you play in woodland.
Frequently asked questions
Why is it purple?
It is the finish Nuprol produce this capacity in. Practically, a bright shell is much easier to find again if you drop it in undergrowth.
Will 120 BBs work in a small launcher?
Yes — capacity is a property of the shell, not the launcher. Any standard 40mm platform will fire it.
How much gas does it need?
A short charge from a green gas can per shot. Larger shells use marginally more than smaller ones.
