Description

The Mk 2 Pineapple Grenade is a renowned symbol of warfare and was a widely used during WWII. Its segmented metal body resembles a pineapple, hence the name. The cylindrical fuze assembly at the top housed the ignition mechanism, armed by removing a safety cap and pin. These anti-personnel weapons would have been thrown by hand approximately 30 yards. The explosion released deadly shrapnel, causing damage within its blast radius. The Mk 2 Pineapple Grenade’s reliability and effectiveness made it a standard issue for American forces and allies. This particular grenade was said to have been found in the Ardennes Forest. It has since been deactivated.

~Condition~
