Hi Guys.
Anyone seen this type of practice grenade before? I was told it may be 1st ww Austrian but it is more the size of a 2nd ww japanese stick grenade.
Length is 7.5 inches, diameter is 2 inches.
Any info will be helpful.
Cheers, Paul.:eek:oh:

Just for good measure, a few pics of my Hungarian M42 stick grenades, INERT HE, Practice and with fragmentation collar. Also three heads screwed together to make a sort of Bangalore torpedo. The heads are threaded internally and externally for this pupose. Also note the practice/drill fuse, mostly made of wood with a metal collar. Tony.
