Description: Hand Grenade riot CS1, ABC-M25A2 has a powerful lachrymal effect and is irritating to the upper respiratory passages, causing coughing, difficulty in breathing and chest tightness. Heavy concentration will cause nausea and vomiting as well. The onset of incapacitation is 15 to 30 seconds and duration from 30 minutes to several hours depending upon the dosage concentration. CS is more persistent and has a more severe reaction than CN.
The grenade body is spherical. It is made of two plastic hemispheres cemented together. The two pieces together form a burster well and slider housing.
The fuze is a pyrotechnic delay-detonating type integral with the grenade body. The fuzing components consist of an arming sleeve, arming pin, firing spring, slider assembly, and firing pin. The slider assembly contains a primer, pyrotechnic delay column, and a detonator. The grenade is assembled with a safety pin and pull ring.
