This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/12/2019
Lot consists of: (A) This is one in the series of short-lived Accuracy Systems Mini Grenades. One of three cylindrical variations designated as the M560, this is the shortest of the group. Developed in the mid-1980’s they were intended for use by US Special Operations Forces. This one is in excellent condition in the typical camouflage paint configuration. (B) Widely considered a “must have” for every grenade collection, this is the Dutch V40, manufactured in the early 1970’s by NWM. While it was never adopted by Dutch Forces it was purchased and saw combat use by the US military, particularly by the Navy SEALs. While unmarked, this grenade is in excellent condition with the fuze complete and the top plug in place.
