Does anyone have a M674 and M675 they can post some good images of. We are re-writing the 60 series publication. We have good internal diagrams, but no external images.

Thanks

Joe
 
Joe,
I'm getting old and need my books. M674 what?
 
Sorry

Sorry,

I am running around with my air on fire today ...

Yes 40-MM CS grenades.

Joe,

All I have is a M651E1 still mounted on the cartridge case. I'll look around and see if we have anything else tucked away.

Joe,

Here is an XM674 if that helps you. Let me know if you need additional images from a different angle / area.

Stay safe,

Frank

Also here is an E24 40MM CS, which was the first production cartridge of the US XM674 / M674 Series.

Thanks ... just what I was looking for. If I need anything else on this I will let you know.

Joe
 
Sounds good Joe, I also can take images of the instruction sheet, bandoleer, packaging box and shipping container if you need.

Stay safe,

Frank
 
If you wouldn't mind the images of that stuff it would be great. We will had them in ... I think the instruction sheet would be great to put in there.

Joe
 
A couple more photos, as it never hurts to have too many...

Thanks guys .. this is perfect. The pub should look good after all of this.

By the way ... Janes (2010 version) says this is still in the US inventory, which I found rather interesting.

How about the Red Smoke 675? Research states it was the practice version of the 674. Would like to see how different they look.

Here is a file photo I found of the M675. Same design and operation as the M674, however it emits Red Colored Non-Irritant Smoke for training purposes.

I will get some scans of the M674 / M675 Instruction Sheets made and posted next week.
