Inert Baseball Grenade
This dummy baseball grenade is an inert US Army piece. It has no explosive filler and does not function. The round steel body gives it the shape that earned American fragmentation grenades their "baseball" nickname, and the green fuze assembly, lever and pull ring sit on top in their correct positions. Collectors, reenactors, instructors and prop builders use it for display, demonstration and setting a scene.
Features
- Spherical Steel Body — The round steel shell has the size and solid weight of a real baseball-pattern grenade, so it feels right in the hand.
- Inert Construction — Inert means the grenade has no explosive charge and no working fuze, so it is a display and training piece only.
- OD Green Fuze Assembly — The fuze housing on top is painted OD green, the olive drab shade used on US military hardware.
- Safety Lever — The long curved lever, known to soldiers as the "spoon," runs down the side of the body as it does on a service grenade.
- Pull Ring and Pin — A green steel ring is attached at the fuze head, showing where the safety pin is pulled before a throw.
- Safety Clip Wire — A wire clip crosses the lever at the fuze, matching the extra safety retainer fitted to US hand grenades.
- US Army Origin — The piece comes from US Army stock, which separates it from novelty grenades sold as toys.
- Display and Training Use — It works on a shelf or in a shadow box, on a reenactor's web gear, or in a class on grenade handling and parts.
Why Issued Kit Matters
A dummy from US Army stock carries the weight, steel construction and fuze layout of the real article. A cast novelty grenade cannot match that. The fuze top, lever and ring are finished in OD green over a bare steel body, so the piece reads correctly next to other American kit in a collection or display. For reenactors and instructors, the right shape and handling weight make a practical difference.

Very nice quality. Heavy.This is a very nice replica. Looks very real, like it was actually demilled from a real one.

Awesome propI needed a realistic looking grenade and this totally did the trick. The cast iron gives it a nice heavy feel so it doesnt look cheap or plastic-y when people pick it up. Its exactly what I wanted and the price was WAY better than I expected.

Great gift for my nephewBought this dummy grenade as a gift for my nephew who collects militaria and he loved the authentic weight and working pull pin on it. I dont usually write reviews but figured id confirm its totaly inert and safe like the listing say

Solid and heavyI'm an assistant scoutmaster and we do a lot of history related programs with our troop. Picked this up along with some other inert ordnance for a WWII presentation we put together. The boys loved it and it really helped bring the history lesson to life when they could actually hold something in their hands instead of just looking at pictures. The fact that its completely inert and no permits needed made it a no brainer for our purposes.
Shipped out fast, had it within about 4 days of ordering.

IncredibleThis dummy grenade looks and feels exactly like the real thing. The all steel construction gives it the authentic weight and heft that makes it feel genuine in your hand, and the craftsmanship is spot on to USGI specifications.
