Drill igniter cartridge Explanation: . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 46 mins (2017-05-17 15:37:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Actually Neil, I should have put my level of certainty at 1 :-( 17642 Danish WW2 Practice Hand Grenade - Officially the: Øvelseshaandbombe M/23 (Drill hand bomb M/23) has 1mm thick walls except for the centre piece which is 2,5mm. When used, these would be loaded with a special drill cartridge called "Øvelsetændpatron M/23" (Drill igniter cartridges M/23) for practice throw. When it explodes the expanding gasses escapes through the hole in the brass nut located at the bottom of the grenade. These were to be reused. Retains about 10% of the original gray paint. Circa 1942 date is sometimes found on the brass end plunger of these. Inert, no explosive or flammable components. $50.00 (View Picture) http://oldguns.net/catho.htm |
