Hi Kenny,
I am by no means an expert on grenades, but i think what you have there is a German WW2 No39 Egg Grenade. I am sure one or two more knowledgeable members will be able to give you some more information.

I agree with Weasel

Considering its pristine condition, it may be a well done repro.

Hi..thanks for replies..yes I am sure you right..I think judging by the condition it is more than likely a repro. .that is why I thought it may have been a modern current grenade ..I will probably offload it onto ebay...unless someone wants to make me a cheeky offer ������

Ebay won't allow it.

It was probably one of the German grenades made for 'Band of Brothers' or possibly a Soldier of Fortune product.

Put it on Quickfire Auctions, http://www.quickfireauctions.co.uk/ but make it cheap. https://www.sofmilitary.co.uk/m39-german-egg-grenade.html

If you look at the SOF link that I posted above you will see that SOF sell them for £9.99

Kenny's is a nicer repro than funny-shaped SOF one though reenactor might like this rather than a collector.
