Experimental Steel No68 Grenade
								Here is an Experimental version of the No68 Anti Tank Grenade. The standard models are made from Mazac, an alloy of Alluminium and Zinc but this version is constructed from steel. These versions were produced for Ordnance board trials in conection with production of No 68's for India. The Indian's had no production facilities for Mazac casting in the size and quantities required and Mazac does not do to well in the hot humid climate of india so an all steel model was required. These were manufactured by W.H. BRISCOE & Co in Birmingham and were produced in 1942. They have no markings except the makers stamp on the body and one of the fins. Internal components seem to be the same as the standard grenade. Unfortunately this one is missing the discharger disc. Does anyone have one ?????
