Thanks

British L2 filled weight

L2a2
Janes lists the filled of the L2A2 Anti-Personnel Hand Grenade as 170g of RDX/TNT 55/45, although the diagram on the same page shows the filling as RDX/TNT 60/40.
I found two websites that state that the L2A1 and L2A2 had the same explosive filling, the only difference between the two models is the fuze holder. These websites some interesting information, but the source of the information cannot be confirmed.
