INERT DEACTIVATED. Scarce WW2 Japanese Type 4 Ceramic Fragmentation Hand Grenade. - O 2073 INERT DEACTIVATED. This is a scarce WW2 Japanese Type 4 hand grenade, commonly known as the Ceramic Grenade that were made at the latter stages of WW2 (late 1944 onwards) by the Japanese due to a shortage of raw materials. The grenades were made from white terra cotta and are glazed with various colours including a very dark brown, tan, cream, white and a clear glaze. When these grenades detonated they fragmented into sharp chards of ceramic being just as effective as a normal cast iron hand grenade. This grenade has a dark chocolate brown coloured ceramic glaze to the body. There is no damage to the grenade or any cracks in the body. No licence is required to possess this inert grenade in the UK if retained as a part of a collection or display. Price includes UK delivery. O 2073 £275.00 |

INERT DEACTIVATED. WW2, 1941 Dated, British No 68 AT Mk III (Anti Tank) HEAT (High Explosive Anti-Tank) Fin Stabilised Hollow Charged Rifle Grenade. Sn - 21303 INERT DEACTIVATED. The grenade, Rifle No. 68 AT was a British anti-tank rifle grenade used during WW2. The No. 68 was an early form of shaped charge grenade, and has some claim to have been the first High Explosive, Anti-Tank (HEAT) device in use. The design of the warhead was simple and was capable of penetrating 52mm (2 inches) of armour in 1940. The fuse of the grenade was armed by removing a pin in the tail which prevented the firing pin from flying forward. The grenade was launched from a rifle cup. The four fins gave it some stability in the air and, provided the grenade hit the target at the proper angle (90 degrees), the charge would be effective. The detonation occurred on impact, when a striker in the tail of the grenade overcame the resistance of a creep spring and was thrown forward into a stab detonator. The grenade is fired from the rifle via a No. 1 Mk.1 rifle bomb discharger cup that fits at the muzzle end of the rifle. This is a rare original WW2, 1941 dated HEAT (High Explosive Anti-Tank) hollow charged No. 68 MK III AT rifle grenade. The grenade is made of die cast alloy with a die cat alloy gas check on the rear. Two of the fins have cast into them No 68 AT III 1941 (1941 date). The base of the body has the makers mark RMLC cast into it. The 68 anti-tank rifle grenade was displaced later in WW2 by improved weapons including the PIAT and other weapons. See ‘GRENADE’ British & Commonwealth Hand & Rifle Grenades, pages 151 – 154 by Rick Landers. The price includes UK delivery and no licence is required to possess this inert grenade in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. Sn 21303 £245.00 |

DEACTIVATED INERT. WW2 1940 Dated, British, DRILL, No.69 I Bakelite Hand Grenade By DLR (Thomas De La Rue London) With All-Ways Weighted Fuse Tape. - O 2070 DEACTIVATED INERT. The British No 69 was a hand grenade developed and used during World War II. It was adopted into service due to the need for a grenade with smaller destructive radius than the No 36M Mills grenade. This allowed the thrower to use a grenade even when there was little in the way of defensive cover. In contrast, the much greater destructive radius of the Mills bomb than its throwing range forced users to choose their throwing point carefully, in order to ensure that they would not be wounded by their own grenade. The shell of the No 69 grenade is composed entirely of the hard plastic, Bakelite, which shattered without producing fragments like a metal bodied grenade. Metal fragmenting sleeves were available to increase the grenade's lethality. Using the No 69 bomb was very simple: the screw-off cap was removed and discarded, and the grenade was then thrown. When the grenade was thrown, a linen tape with a curved lead weight on the end automatically unwrapped in flight, freeing a ball-bearing inside the fuse. In this manner the all-ways fuse was armed in flight and the grenade exploded on impact and like the Gammon grenade, which used the same fuse design, it was withdrawn from service soon after the Second World War ended. This is an excellent original WW2, 1940 dated No.69 I DRILL hand grenade. It has the correct Bakelite body with screw off cap and all-ways weighted fuse cord. The grenade retains most of its original white painted finish and is stenciled in black near the base DRILL. The base of the grenade is embossed No.69 I and D.L.R.-40 (No, 69 grenade mark 1, Thomas De La Rue London, 1940 date). the grenade is fitted with a dummy screw out primer holder and a white dummy fuze to practice fuzing the hand grenade. The top of its screw off cap is embossed 247 MK II (No 247 mark 2 allways fuse). The inside of the cap is embossed K36. Under the screw off top is the metal weighted fly of tape. See pages 155 - 157 in ‘GRENADE’ British & Commonwealth Hand & Rifle Grenades by Rick Landers. No licence is required to possess this grenade in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. Price includes UK delivery. O 2070 £275.00 |
