+1,
The stock is a bad copy...

How much is he asking for it? if its cheap enough i would go for it the can is good i feel the stick is good a slight variant of the norm but i do recall seeing a other similar one
as for the arming instructions in white something is telling me this could possible be original!? i have never seen the arming instructions on anything other than RR marked ones but what is to say they didnt?

can looks good EXCEPT for the arming instructions, which I feel have been a recent addition to add value. In my opinion the markings were deleted from production mid 1940. This is my observation of grenades I have owned and seen in others collections.
Handle? well not the usual pattern but if someone can produce other examples maybe it could be OK?? I personally have not seen flf marked handles so cant offer any insight on this one.

Thank you guys!! for the opinions and info.

I think I'll pass this. Head looks good but the white legend... The handle looks a reproduction...

Thanks again!

Just did a very quick google search for "stick grenade flf" and found this one http://www.jessensrelics.com/GFG/GFG-020.html 43 dated and slightly lighter wood but the same kind of machining on the handle
i also like the patina on the close up of the markings there is just something that seems right with this to me

and would you believe it i was just checking estand and saw this one http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...d.php?t=621014
this stick looks fresh but it looks good the hardware on the other hand doesn't look right too loose a fit
not sure what to think now!!
