Hi, I just joined this site today. My name's Mat, I'm 17 and I have a great interest in military history. I collect weapons and militaria, including grenades... so far I have 4 and I'm only just getting started. I'm intending to learn a lot more about all of this, so here I am.
Now here's some questions I need some help with, if anyone could answer them I'd greatly appreciate it. Is the paint on the grenade pictured original? And if so, does the lack of a yellow band mean that this grenade did not contain high-explosive filler? And finally, is a pressure switch such as this fused to detonate instantly?
Thanks!
