Training/Drill Grenade?

04-01-2005, 03:00 AM

Hey guys. I’m about 99.9999% sure that this is a Repro/Fake item, but want your oppinions on it. I did to a "search" for training grenade and found nothing. Solid head, solid handle, cap is fixed. Is this a complete fantasy item? If any one has pictures of the real thing, please post. Thanks

Take care.

Tim

Hi Tim,

This one is totally bogus. The wooden handle is fake, the cap is fake, the stamps are fake and also the head. If I find time I will put a couple of photos of a good and original practice grenade.

Greetings,

Frans

Chris,

I'm a lover of truth. As I said I was 99.9999% sure it was bogus. Thanks to everyone for their comments. Did training/drill grenades exist? Anyone have pictures of one? Thanks again. Take care.
