Some of you may have noticed I put up a couple of wanted posts for an m69 U.S. practice baseball grenade (not the crappy cast iron surplus circuit special). Well I was having no luck at all. There was a guy on gun broker who used to sell them but his ad was gone. Well I spent 3 days doing the search engine gig using ques like "inert surplus grenade", "baseball grenade" and the like. I found a ton of sites that had the "surplus circuit three", you know the cast iron knockoffs of the baseball, lemon and pineapple from 7.00 - 12.00, freaking junk! I finally found a dealer who sounded familiar so I emailed him. Now this hunting and pecking on the search engines is really not my thing so I just can't express how much of a pain in the ass this whole ordeal has been. That's what reminded me of Charlie Chan (first forensic detective from movies in the late 1930's and 1940's fingerprints, wood chips, fabric and such) His part was played by Sydney Tolar, Warner Oland and Roland Winters used after Asian actors failed starting in the 1920's. Anyway when I was a kid in the '60's he was my hero. So anyhow to make a long story even longer this guy emails me back and not only does he have an m69 but also has an m67! A deal was quickly struck and when I get them i shoot up some pictures.....Dano
