-
Original Item: Only One Available. This is an extremely rare excellent example of an practice training M1924, M24, or "Stielhandgranate 24" German Stick Grenade, often called a "Potato Masher".
This is an excellent example with matching dates and maker markings. The warhead still unscrews, as does the bottom cap, which reveals the porcelain pull bead. It still retains its original red paint on the warhead, and the original markings can be seen on the head and shaft of the grenade.
The top of the warhead and the handle bears the manufacturer code 44 brb. This code corresponds to Richard Rinker GmbH, Menden, Kreis Iserlohn. Richard Rinker GmbH was founded in 1910, and was situated in Menden in Iserlohn. It specialized in the production of castings, especially of building hardware made of brass. In the mid-1930s the production was switched to light metals. They were still in production in 1991, manufacturing heaters under the name BAUFA-Werke Richard Rinker GMBH. Warhead is empty and demilitarized, it screws off easily from the shaft.
