Hi, I thought some of you might like to ID, some WW1 grenades.
So I have put some on for you to see. Some are common ones, but other you might not have seen before? The German mortar is one i restored after being dug on the somme.

the one in the first picture with the wooden handle and the large metal block on it is a "hairbrush" grenade, I think its British. The other big one is what looks like a German stick grenade. The one on the left of the cylinder shaped one is French, and the one on the right of the cylinder shaped on is a German egg grenade. On the right of that is a German "disk" grenade. Behind that are a couple of British Mills bombs. I dont know about the ones in the second and third pics but the one in the second pic with the wooden handle is French I think???
I'm not really an expert on this kind of thing, but I hope I've got at least some right
Nice Bren Gun
Great collection , cheers Raymond
I forgot to mention, you have done a superb job restoring that German mortar round
