Picked this up just before x-mas, it needs a bit of tlc but it is solid and all there ready for a little restoration project.

whatzit

Hi Jeeeensy, I am not familiar with this one, another thread I missed. Was this a stick grenade and what did it use for a fuze. Pardon my ignorance but am real curious on this one. Please keep us informed on restoration stages as I am really intrigued with this piece. Mucho thanks for showing and sharing.....Dano

Nice pick up Nick. I take it that this is a smoke grenade?

Hi Nick,
There is something odd in top plate of this head. I have in addition to Spotter's drawing seen the same in another source. However they both show ordinary M/39 Nb head with fuze and adapter. In yours there are no traces of the original threaded collar to attach handle or adapter. Further the smoke escape holes are too near center - they should be outside the threaded collar. What is center tube thread size in yours?

This is other later variant; it is correct.

Fair enough - does anyone have a sectional drawing of this version?

great drawing spotter

Hi Spotter, that is a great line drawing. I must admit i've never seen the like. should make a beautiful restoration project, or even display as is next to a better example. Jeeeensy you own it so you make the call...Dano

Hi Nice ,,,,This is either a M24 HGR or a M39 Nebel with the adaptor fitted, the for-runner before the Nebel 41. Here's one of each.
