Hi Folks, pictured here are two m1913 German Kugel Grenades. One is an original all metal and the other is a cast resin reproduction. Which is which? Dano

Yes, Missing Something, you are right. I thought it was a pretty good copy and made a good filler piece until I could get the real one. Aside from the paint it is really hard to tell, as the transport plug is an original. Dano
 
Its the little pocking of the grenade that's the giveaway. Nice replica though....

I have a couple of Replica's too....(don't have an original yet :tinysmile_cry_t4:)
