Swiss teargas grenades

[peteblight]

I'm trying to find the measurements of the Swiss BBWK 32 and BWK 34 teargas grenades as shown on Lex's site.

Could someone post the lengths and diameters of these grenades please.

Cheers

Pete

Do you know the fill material for the BWK 34?

The filler is Benzilbromid (a teargas variant - what ever that is in Swiss-German) and is contained in a glass ampule. As expelling/rupturing charge the grenade holds 2 gram of black powder.

Except it doesn't give the measurements or the fill materials!
