German M39 egg grenade

[Nick Hessens]

Just arrived with the post. Still has a lot of paint. Marked with: '43'. She has a yellow fuze, that means 7,5 seconds before ignition if i'm not mistaking.
Hope you like her. Maybe start a thread about nothing but M39 egg grenades.

Your opinions please.
Thanks in advance.

Very nice Egg Grenade M-39...BILL

in my opinion the fuze and yellow painted cap is post war czech, not german.

Thanks Bill, do you have an egg grenade?
Love to see others.

Cheers

Indeed- the defintiely German ones I have all have domed caps, not flattened, are marked, and the little arms are longer and bent...

Are these the good ones? The fuze looks a bit to long.

Matt L, can you show yours?
