No 36M MkI Mills Bomb F/S F/T (INERT)m
 

Thanks all. A possible trade is pending.




I have a Canadain made Mills Bomb for sale or trade. My Dad got this in the 50s at a surplus store. He used them during the war and just wanted to have one as a reminder of the old days.
Anyway you can see it as he bought it.

The plug isn't like any in photos and Dad does not remember ever seeing one like it before during WW2 or Korea but he's british and didn't have access to Canadian kit though it's probably not original. It does have a Broad Arrow with a slash through it though on the top, just visible in the photos.

The bomb is marked FW for Frost & Woods of Canada

The base plug has the stamp for S.Joesph Stokes Rubber Co. as does the centrepiece. The base plug is marked 1945 while the centre piece is marked 1942.

The spring is still very strong and works well. It took me 20 mins to find again.
