Heres my latest aquisition.
Its a Polish E type grenade which is a modified British No16 grenade. It was fitted with the Ac 23 fuze. This was used as a training grenade and had no explosive filling. There was another version that had no fuze, just a plug in each end and a sand filling and was used for throwing practice.
The body of this gren is marked in raised letters
"Mc D ? & Co Ltd 1915"
Did McDonalds make grenades before they made burgers?:tinysmile_fatgrin_t
any help with an Id on this manufacturer would be appreciated.
Cheers, Paul.
