I do not have the dimensions, but hopefully the photo can be of use to you.
The M39 is a smoke grenade but you properly know that.

Or are you looking for the Norwegian M39?

Hi Mineaz16

They are the same size/dimension. But the M/39 has different threads, different end cap (with lugs) on the stick and the head of the stick is more "edged" in design.

So I assume there is a confusion between German M24 and Swedish M/39 in ww2 documentations.
