Item Description
Original Item: Only One Available. Totally inert and demilitarized according to BATF guidelines with hollow body and inert fuse. This grenade cannot be converted to an explosive device and is not available for export.
The French DF37 was a French Pre-WWII design hand "offensive" type hand grenade. It was put into service in 1937 together with OF 37 defensive hand grenades. Both grenades were typically used with Mle 1935 fuse while later variations used both Mle 1935 and new F3 and F5 fuses (which make the grenade look different). Visually OF 37 differs from DF 37 in that the body of OF 37 consists of two parts, while DF 37 has a solid body.
This is a red and blue painted “Little Brown Jug” version of the OF37, which originally would have been filled with 90g of pulverized Tolite. It has a correct Mle.35 fuze, marked on the side with AEM and on the lever with AFM / 206 / 40. The body itself is marked on the bottom SC.
A lovely example ready for further research and display.
