This grenade resembles the US Mk2 grenade in form and fuze mechanism. The body has a hole in the base to fit a cork when a blackpowder charge is fitted to the body. After throwing, the mousetrap fuze ignites the delay which on its turn ignites the b/p charge. Bodies were recovered and fitted with a new fuze, charge and cork.
Length w/fuze : 113mm Length w/o fuze : 90mm Diameter : 56mm Hole in base of body : 15mm
