S&W No. 81 Practice Grenade

[MissingSomething]

Does anyone have any info / data sheets on the Smith & Wesson Chemical Co. No. 81 practice grenade?

I picked up a nice one, but I dont have any info in my library for it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

They were designed to be an economical / reusable training aid for familiarization and practice throwing. They were offered with a dummy fuze and optional live fuzes and chemical agent pellets were also available for effect if desired. Clip from a S&W Catalog circa Early 1980's attached.

Federal Laboratories also offered a similar type of system known as the No. 240 Practice Grenade.

Ditto on what he says. I almost bought a complete kit but unfortunately it was way too much!
