Is this even a grenade?

[DEADLINE222]

......says it is a Kugel, 1913.

It's certainly a Kugel type. Unless it's another 'interim' i.e between the 1913 and the 1915. It may be a non German version. Not seen it before.

Seen one like that before, I think it was a Russian copy of the Kugel. I could be wrong though.

Unfortunately, this is not Russian kugel. He looked pretty differently.

I think you have the body of a Stielhandgranate Kugel 1915 mit AufschlagZünder (St.Hgr.15)
(see second grenade on pic)
