Hi Spotter, are you still looking for a correct safety pin and 2nd safety clip for this ? Tony.
 
Hello Roller yes i am,i actually got an additional safety clip the other day but it was for the HE version and is not compatible with the practice one,so if you have a spare please drop me a Private Message with details,,thanks spotter

L11A1 Fuze

The fuzes in these grenades are of two types.

1. Grenade Hand Practice L162A1
2. Grenade Hand Practice L162A2

The A1 differs visually from the A2 in that the A1 had a metal band just below the wide part.
 
i might have spares i will have to have a dig about, keep it out of sun light that is why the rubber strap has darkened and it could go brittle.

Ill have a dig about and let you know.
 
SM is Swiss Made. Sorry don't know a maker. (Unless it also means Swiss Munitions?)
