Hello all,
I was hoping for some information on this hard rubber practice grenade I recently found in a mixed lot at auction. It is marked 'PROV. PAT. No 14687/41' so is presumably British and of WWII era. I have googled extensively but can't find any matches/information. It has a weighted core...
Hi All
