Thanks guys!


I saw the picture below on the Lexpev website, but it looks so different that I thought it was not the same grenade. Does anyone know if there was more than one version?

None of the pictures I've found on-line show the internal parts of this grenade. My example has some obvious issues, so I am wondering if any of you guys have a nicer example that you can show us with it broken down. I read that the un-issued grenades came with a paper and small pencil inside for writing the message Does anyone have an un-issued example with those included?

I have some of These Nachrichtenpatrone Z in my Collection. The only difference that I could see is that there is one "Version" with Gold anodised Body. This type is Shorter than the non anodised items, as you can see in the one pic in this thread.

Otherwise, I do not know of any differences…..
