No36 Mills.

[Bullet Mick]

Hello i got this Mills grenade about 6 years ago. It was the first grenade i got and was given to me by my Dad and kind of kick started my interest in grenades. I was always under the impression it was a WW2 No36 practice grenade but i now suspect it may be WW1 or at least the base plug is. Could anyone shed any light on whether it is a WW1 grenade or a later grenade with a WW1 base plug cheers Mick.

The Lever, Base plug and center tube are WW1, the filler screw is WW2 not sure about the body, the ring pull is post war the spring could be any time and the striker also,,,,,,, Dave
