    Mill Grenade identification appreciated

    Well I know this is probably peanuts for you gentlemen. But still would appreciate some input.

    Been several years since iv continued my collection as well as been on the forum..
    Moved to Cairo, and finally got time to get back to the good old hobby..

    So anyway, I picked up this presumably 1940's era mill training grenade.. though Im not sure, as its not my field at all..

    Would appreciate any input you might have on the paint job, the grenade type/date itself, and pricing.. as I got it for 15L.E which is like 2 GBP.

    Thanks in advance!

    Sorry for bumping the thread, but I had it moved from the Large Ordinace forum due to lack of response.

    Hope you gentlemen might have some input

    Cheers,
    Chris

        Definitely

        Definitely a purely practice type.

        Casting never machined out, .. and painted white.

          Thanks a lot of the information and your time!
          I checked the site provided and I came across another site for Mill grenades as well, sent the owner a message and he replied that it could be a WW2 Practice grenade. Probably produced locally as it do have some slight variation from the British produced ones. He also raised the issue that it might be a Israeli made one as they produced Mill grenades after WW2.

          Im gonna bring it to some Egyptian "old-timers" to see if they can recognize it.. If so I presume its a Egyptian produced practice grenade, during or after ww2 I wont be able to know yet..
          Already asked one of my friends who are currently serving and he informed me he never saw one as they don't use practice grenades, only live ones during training.

          Trying to narrow it down step by step hehe..
