Description
The famous british Mills Bomb No.5 Mk I. Designed by William Mills in 1915 and adopted by the British Army in the same year it filled the need for the grenades on the front. Equipped with a 7 second fuse it was feared on the battlefields of World War I. The Mills Bomb underwent further modifications and was – in it's last iteration – in use until 1972.
Model is looking really good, I think the paint could use abit of wear and tear, and perhaps a more olive shade of green?
I'll look into that. You have to take into consideration though that this grenade may have not seen much of the world outside its box since it should be kept dry and so on. Especially grenades are rather new when they are used and especially aren't reused like other things which are way more "used" looking :)
Understandable, just my two cents :) I'm abit of a fan of gritty looking things!
