Visual Details: Cast in a dark, solid Army Green (Olive Drab) color, this accessory accurately replicates a vintage stick-style hand grenade. The lower portion features a cylindrical warhead with a distinct diamond-patterned (knurled) texture. Above the warhead is a long, smooth handle specifically scaled for a minifigure’s C-shaped hand to grip securely. Attached to the side of the handle is a sculpted safety lever (spoon/clip) detail, which is characteristic of this specific historical grenade type.
Background: Based on its distinct shape and the provided file name, this accessory models the Russian Model 1914 (M1914) hand grenade. Designed by Vladimir Rdultovsky, it was the standard-issue fragmentation grenade for the Imperial Russian Army during World War I and saw continued, extensive use by the Soviet Red Army during World War II. The textured diamond pattern on the lower cylinder of this accessory replicates the heavy steel fragmentation sleeve that was often slipped over the grenade for defensive use to generate more deadly shrapnel. The Army Green finish of this specific accessory represents the standard military olive drab paint used to camouflage ordnance in the field. This makes it an incredibly versatile weapon for equipping custom minifigures, fitting perfectly into World War I trenches, WWII Eastern Front battles, or any historical tactical building block dioramas.
