Mills 36M dummy

[wichitaslumlord]

Hello,
I recently bought this #36 Mills in Tulsa OK USA but I am unfamiliar with the paint scheme. It was originally white and was then painted blue with an orange band and stenciled. The body has been broken in three pieces and then glued back together. The seller said that he had two of them and both were identical, including being broken into 3 pieces and then being glued. It is marked "36M DUMMY 2507"
Any information would be appreciated! Thanks, Pat

It's a post WW2 Canadian practice grenade, The body looks to be Frost & Woods (Canadian) made although fitted with a WW2 British base plug. So the base plug is a replacement.
