Title
Grenades
Description
Two de-cored American grenades I own. The one on the left is your classic pineapple grenade which dates from the Second World War. The one on the right is a more modern grenade that began service in the Vietnam War I believe. Both have a good deal of heft to them as they are made from cast iron. They're fun paperweights. Both do have their pin mechanism intact though I won't be pulling the pin anytime soon as to me that would get rid of the charm of having what appears to be a live grenade. It's amazing what you can find out antique stores.
