Hi Guys, Heres one I recently compleated ,mills M36 Cutaway.
The body was picked up on a local auction site stripped of all internals so I searched high and low for replacements and managed to get a centre tube,base plug and filler screw. The pin and ring are new from a BOCN member (Thanks Andy)
The striker I made and the lever is one of a batch I had made from cad drawings supplied by another helpfull BOCN member (thanks Bloome).

As a matter of interest its a local (New Zealand) manufactured grenade made by Mason and Porter which is currently knowen as Masport, famous nowdays for making Lawnmowers!

Also added pic of a page in my grandfathers WWII service record showing he compleated the course on smallarms and Hand Grenades....its in the blood:tinysmile_fatgrin_t

Regards
