I've got a dummy very similar to this, is this a common pattern with any sort of nomenclature?

Its an early centre-cast number 5 mills bomb, incompleted as not been on lathe to put in the other grooves. would have been made sometime in 1915.

these were made specifically as practice grenades as there is no casting on the front for a filling screw. also the space between the shoulders is not wide enough for a standard lever. mine has a round bar attached by a pin so it won't come off when thrown.. I think they are canadian but not 100% sure.:tinysmile_grin_t:
