There is the same story as previous about the use of the grenades look at this thread Estonian stick grenade
The fuse system of the grenade was made of a bad metallic alloy and was not durable, some of the catch sights of accidents was in Estonian army due of that fact.

A little late with a reply....I just saw this interesting post. Nice pics Dimas.

No, the yellow color would indicate it was a HE (High Explosive) grenade, that was filled with TNT. It is a British made grenade body.

Here look, a few more pics of them, and some info.....

No, that is dactivated, even the locally made explosives is not a stable, this kind of grenade leaves unstable with this kind of fuse system
