Frequently Asked Questions

How does the safety spoon on a hand grenade work?

The safety spoon on a hand grenade acts as a lever. As long as your thumb holds the spoon down, it prevents the firing pin from striking the primer, delaying detonation. Releasing the spoon allows the firing pin to initiate the fuse sequence.

What does the "M-SOFT" designation mean on a grenade?

The "M-SOFT" designation typically indicates that the grenade is a training or airsoft variant. These are designed for safe handling during training exercises or recreational use and are not live ordnance.

What is the first step in safely handling a training hand grenade like the T G-67 M-SOFT?

The first step is to identify the device and understand its markings. For the T G-67 M-SOFT, noting 'FRAG. DELAY' is important. Crucially, understand that pulling the pin is what makes it dangerous, and the spoon must be held down.

What is the primary safety feature on the T G-67 M-SOFT grenade?

The primary safety feature is the "pin and spoon" system. The pin prevents the spoon from releasing, and the spoon, when held down by the user's grip, prevents the grenade from detonating.
