Original U.S. Vietnam War Inert M18 Cylinder CN-DM Chloroacetophenone Adamsite Gas Grenade with M201A1 Fuse in Husk Container - Dated 1968 - EOD Training Aid
-
Original Item. Only One Available. During the Vietnam War, U.S. forces primarily used CS gas (o-chlorobenzylidene malononitrile), which had replaced the older agent CN (chloroacetophenone). Both are riot control agents, but CS was considered more potent and less toxic than CN. Chloroacetophenone (CN) was used in Vietnam, though less extensively than CS, primarily by South Vietnamese forces. Like all deactivated ordnance, this grenade is Not Available for Export.
This is a scarce CN-DM Chloroacetophenone Adamsite grenade used during the Vietnam War. This example was likely used as an EOD Training aid. It is marked on the side with a red stripe and:
GAS
CN-DM
PB-2-68
This likely denotes a date of February 1968. The fuze is mostly too faint to read, but we can make out that it is an M201A1 fuze.
The grenade comes in a husk which is marked with a warning about the grenade’s use.
Comes ready for further research and display.
