Mills Bomb

This is a WW1 British No. 23 Mills Bomb. This model of hand grenade has a modified base plate that can be attached to a rod, enabling the device to be fired from a rifle. After the pin is pulled and lever released, the grenade detonates four seconds later. Shrapnel is dispersed over a long distance with an estimated lethal radius of about ten yards.
