    Thanks,
    Ron

    This is a Type 99 "Kiska" grenade. The markings on the fuze are date (May 1943) and the arsenal (1st Tokyo Arsenal).
    This is an interesting grenade because it is also used in the Type 100 Rifle grenade launcher

      Thanks Blinky. You guys are quick and good! I wish I this resource had been available when I was still an active collector.....I wouldn't be so dumb about these things now !

      Thanks again,
      Ron

        These are also found (got to be extremely lucky!) with glued on instruction labels. Labels were easily damaged of lost.
