M17 rifle grenade reproduction, OD green.
HISTORY :
The M17 Rifle Grenade is a fragmentation rifle grenade which is typically launched from a Grenade Launcher attached to the muzzle of an M1 Garand, a Springfield 1903 or an M1 Carbine.
The M17 uses the body of a MKII Hand Grenade with the time fuse replaced with a tail section containing an impact fuse.
HEAD & TAIL :
The head & tail are 3D printed with solid PETG plastic.The MKII head is scanned from an original MKII grenade. Therefore all the dimensions and details are faithfully reproduced. Even the original markings on the body are visible !
The stabilizer tube perfectly fits WW2 launchers (see photos).
⚠️ The MKII head can not be removed / detached / unscrewed from the stabilizer tube. They are 1 solid piece, for durability reasons.
BODY COLOR :
The body is made with dark grey PETG, then painted OD green.
A light coat of patina is then applied for better visual realism.
When using your grenade, the paint will slowly wear off and scratch over time, revealing the grey/steel aspect underneath (just like the real deal, which is a plus regarding authenticity).
PIN :
Pin is made of metal, and can be removed (even though we advise you not to do so in order to ensure better durability of the product).
OVERALL WEIGHT :
100g.
ATTENTION :
⚠️ Price is indicated for 1 grenade.
⚠️ The M17 grenade launcher visible on photos is not for sale. You only buy the M17 grenade.
⚠️ To ensure durability of the product, do not pull the pin and remove the spoon hundred of times. This reproduction is made to be used as a simple display element on your gear or in your collection, not as a functional or training device that you can "arm" and/or throw.
⚠️ Please be aware that the safety pin is not made to be used on real grenades, and do not meet any real weapon safety criteria. This is a reproduction for dummy props.

ww2gear founder
I am François, founder and manager of ww2gear.
As far as I can remember, I have always been a WW2 history buff.
The ww2gear adventure started back in 2017 with the creation of the @ww2gear Instagram page. Since then, I have developed increasing interest for WW2 reenactment.
One thing led to another, and I quickly joined a U.S. Army reenactment group in Belgium : The BRO.
Simultaneously, I started creating repro gear for myself and a few friends, in line with the concrete needs of WW2 collectors and reenactors. It quickly became a serious business, which led to a full time job in 2020.
Since then, I have managed and shipped hundreds of orders all around the world, and collaborated with numerous reenactment groups and other militaria professionals.
Most products available on this webshop are handcrafted by myself or individual makers, which explains the limited assortment strategy.
I am a passionate person, working to enhance your passion.
Do not hesitate to contact me, and thanks for your trust! 😉
