Description

The device which used these projectiles was deployed by the German infantry companies and named the “Granatenwerfer 16”.

This was a trench weapon which could throw a grenade up a distance of 460 meters. It was portable weighing 38 kilograms and extremely effective against trench positions, sentry posts, machine guns and other infantry targets.

The grenade-thrower was first employed by Austro-Hungarian troops and was called the “Priesterwefer,” as it was designed by a Hungarian priest named Vecer. Seeking new weapons effective for trench warfare, the Germans began producing the grenade-thrower near the end of 1915 under license at Stock & Co in Berlin-Marienfelde.

This is the grenade head without its wings in a relic condition.

~ Dimensions ~

The overall length of the piece is 11 inches (28 cm) and it weighs 1.5 kg.
