Might be of interest. Mks I, II, III & IV and three experimental types, two for a cup discharger.

Norman,

Do you have any more on how the first experimental one operated? That was the Rogers multiple carrier design wasn't it?


A clearer photo of the common MkIIIs attached.

Yes Tom, that's right. A steel bar went through the hole in the fuze body holding up a spring-loaded striker. The bomber pulled the grenade off of the bar and the striker fired the cap - throw grenade. The bar could presumably have different configurations but the one I remember had half loop in the middle and held three grenades either side with safety pins through each end of the bar. I guess the bar was secured to a convenient part of the trench by the loop and a length of cord. If I find the drawing I will post it up.
