Grenade help please

[RussellM]

Hi gents

I've been searching the threads trying to find a pin the same as this one here.

Is this correct?

All the one's I've seen have a little twist loop, if you know what I mean.

Any help appreciated as always.

Regards

Russ

Hi Geoff

Thanks for your comments.

This is not in my possession yet but hopefully will be sometime soon.

I don't believe there are any markings on the bottom from memory.

Hey Russ,Here are a few pics of my Type 97 grenade with the loop type pin I have heard the markings on the bottom indicate the filling date but I'm not sure.One of the marks on mine resembles an anchor but that might be a partial stamp and just a coincidence Good luck on snagging yours! Geoff
