RFI: V46 Frag Grenade
- Thread starter Eodtek
- Start date
It was the MN-45, thought the practice was sometimes called the MN-46, much as the V-40 practice was sometimes called the V-41 practice.
I don't think I've ever seen any documentation, but I've got a couple of minor variations plus some body manufacturing failures. I think it's the same fuze as the V40, but will need to look closely to be sure. If I recall correctly the V60 uses a larger fuze.
The only things I've seen with this size fuze are the MN-45, the V-40, the V-40 attached to the rifle grenade adapter and the red plastic body which I was told for years was a CS variant, but in the last year or so somebody was saying that it was a diver signal grenade. I've never seen any documentation either way but I have a couple of variations of that as well. Let me know what you need photos of and how high the resolution/image size.
