Greetings All, thought I would share my latest addition.
This is one of the late war last ditch grenades produced from concrete, pictured beside a M24 to compare sizes. The head and pull ball are original the handle and string are modern additions but both are very close to original design.
Many variations on the type of handle existed, getting more crude as the pressure went on!
I had to wait a while for this one to surface but it was well worth the wait.
You guys in europe probiably excivate these by the truck load but to me is a neat addition to my collection and keeps a concrete egg grenade and a concrete Volks grenade 45 company.
Hope you enjoy seeing them
regards
Andrew
