Recently acquired a Mills, most probably a Home Guard Training Mills. Not sure if these were made by a local foundry and had workers served in the Home Guard or it was common for the Home Guard to improvise or what. Anyone have similar training grenades. This one is cast hollow, as no filler plug striker holes pin hole and is quite heavy, not the best of castings but it was good enough for throwing. The grenade is painted or coated in a grey finish similar to the Gibbons grenade.
