Unknown Grenade

[EODGUY]

Can anyone identify this grenade? All I have is the photograph, no idea where it was found, who made it, etc.

Looks like a damaged South Korean K 75.

or perhaps the Swiss HG85/British L109/110/111/dutch N???

"Safety clips are on the L109 and Nr330 C1 and C2 only." (Lex)
It almost looks like there's a hole in the bottom making it an L110 or L111.

I believe that it is this grenade: http://www.bocn.co.uk/vbforum/threads/11400-Hgr-Nr330-and-Nr-330C1?highlight=British+L109%2F110%2F111%2Fdutch+N%3F%3F%3F. Thanks Blu

I also see that it has been in some kind of high heat fire or something close. There appears to be heat patina all over it too.

IMHO, I really think this might be the one.

Hi. My money is on it being a Brit L109A1. Cheers

Its an L110 for me, definitely looks like a hole at the base.

cheers,

Thanks to everyone for the replies. I could not tell if the fuze cover was broken off or designed the way it appears in the photograph. I don't think there are enough markings left on it to sort out the exact model, but you all have certainly narrowed it down. Bob

I'm going for an L110A1, caught in a fire for whatever reason, as I wouldn't have thought a drill version would be outside the classroom. Would make more sense if it were an L111, following a forest fire in a training area, as are common.
L111 have safety clips also, but are bigger and the lever doesn't have the cover on it, and the neck is significantly wider than the L109 and L110. The bottom of the grenade seems to look like it has a hole in the bottom, but this may just be the pic.
