M18 Smoke Grenade Vietnam War Dummy Replica

The M18 Smoke Grenade grew to be a battlefield icon as early as WWII. However, it gained notoriety during the Vietnam war, as it was widely used for concealment and primarily signaling. 

I have faithfully reproduced these custom versions of Smoke Grenade replicas in all four primary colors: Red, Yellow, Green, and Violet. 

These are aluminum shells and filled with pellets to nearly a perfect realistic weight. They are stamped by hand, clear coated, and again painted by hand and worn to reach its weathered state. I am incredibly proud of these, but there are things YOU need to know: 

1. These are all individually hand-made so they are unique from piece to piece. There are only  10 in thish first batch! 
2. They are all worn slightly differently. You will find some have dents, scratches, scrapes, excessive mud / rust staining, or very little of any of it. All intentional. 
3. The filling in the inside was compacted and made to be as silent as possible. However, during shipment and/or use, some beads may shift and a slight rattling sound may be heard. I did my best to mitigate this, but you have been warned. 
4. These are DUMMIES. These do not function and cannot be made to function in any way. 

I also have ONE AN-M14 Incen in a pinkish color. When you grab it, it's GONE! 

This is the first batch I am putting on the site. These are incredibly labor intensive and expensive to produce, so it will be some time before I do a second run. 

Traditions Rebuilt.
