The first devices like this were created in the 1960s at the order of the British Special Air Service as a distraction grenade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is designed to produce a blinding flash of light and loud noise without causing permanent injury. The flash produced momentarily activates all light sensitive cells in the eye, making vision impossible for approximately five seconds, until the eye restores itself to its normal, unstimulated state. The loud blast causes temporary loss of hearing, and also disturbs the fluid in the ear, causing loss of balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese grenades are designed to temporarily neutralize the combat effectiveness of enemies by disorienting their senses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen detonated, the fuze-grenade body assembly remains intact. The body is a tube with holes along the sides that emit the light and sound of the explosion. The explosion does not generally cause fragmentation injury, but can still burn. The concussive blast of the detonation can injure and the heat created can ignite flammable materials such as fuel. The fires that occurred during the Iranian Embassy Siege in London were caused by stun grenades. The filler consists of about 4.5 g (0.16 oz) of a pyrotechnic metal-oxidant mix of magnesium or aluminum and an oxidizer such as ammonium perchlorate or potassium perchlorate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Original Items","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43841286373445,"sku":"ONJR25JYAU150","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1524\/1342\/files\/ONJR25JYAN150__01.jpg?v=1760648801","url":"https:\/\/www.ima-usa.com\/products\/original-french-type-241-aveuglante-plastic-concussion-stun-grenade-inert-1","provider":"International Military Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
