Belguim Grenade NR 423

Chinese Type 73 Hand Frag.

Austrian Hand Grenade HG 79

It is Grenade Week

So I am not just adding random stuff I have made myself a little flow on how I will add information (do not allow this to stop you from adding other stuff, it is just so I can focus a little).  I will do it like this:

Grenades, Landmines, Firing devices, Projectiles (Small caliber), Projectiles (Large caliber), Guided missiles, bombs, and so on.  I will figure it out as I go.  Hope this helps with the flow.  Thanks

The intent of this is to share as much information if possible with each other as possible.  I have been getting a lot of emails about people wanting to add information to the site.  Please add as much as you can to share with others.  Keep in mind though that this is an open site and it is intended for not only for us but for civilian enthusiasts as well which can give extra assistance and insight.  Pictures, nomenclature, places, and dates are not controlled but procedures are.  So please keep that in mind.  I also been getting some questions of why?  The basic answer is that I love ordnance and I believe we all have something we can share and that I learn something every day.  Thanks and I hope you can use this.
