US Mk.II without a fuze .......... Relatively safe

"Relatively"?

Pretty hard to ignite contents w/o the fuze.....Of course if somebody warms it up with a torch, they get what they deserve.....Bodes

If filled with TNT it can be unstable over a period of time.

TNT is the most stable explosive at normal temperatures - charges from WW1 found in France and Italy........still in exellent condition
