Original Austro-Hungarian WWI Stick Grenade with Pull Ring & String - Stielhandgranate Russian Artillery with no throat pipeOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of a BATF approved inert Austro Hungarian "stick grenade". While primarily associated with their allies Imperial Germany, some versions were also made for the Austrian forces, based on the German designs, of which their were many. This grenade stands about 14 inches tall with a 4 inch long inert explosive head. These are exceptionally rare far more difficult to find than the WWII versions.
