I saw the grenade one too. The rock *** company just drills holes in rocks. Assuming the hole was the right size (or i could make it into the right size), it should work much the same way that guy's grenade did.

I know it just a button to push down on the shifter but do you know if there is a write up like how measurements. I wouldn't mind having. A grenade shifter
