No77 grenade Mk2 picture details

[Millsman]

The Army 1951 Training manual for grenades still lists the No 77 Mk I despite it being listed as obsolete by that date. No sign of the Mk II in the book

I didn't know this was a particularly scarce grenade. There's at least one beat up survivor here in America. Can anyone tell me who the maker was of my example?

Tom,

Thanks, that makes sense with SM/C as a filler not a manufacturer. Normally Canadian 77 MkIs have ER/C painted on them, denoting they were filled with WP by the Electro Reduction Company, Buckingham, Quebec, Canada. But, to confuse matters, Singer were also using SM/C see - http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/89889-Hello-from-Montreal
