Since 1915 the lethal, portable and reliable hand grenade has become an essential and ubiquitous weapon in the infantryman's armory.
Allowing the user to inflict damage on his opponent within throwing range without leaving cover, the portable, lethally efficient hand grenade is a ubiquitous weapon of modern warfare, and has now found its way into law-enforcement arsenals too.
