The main German Grenade of the Great War was the Steilhandgranate Stg24 (better known to allied soldiers by the nickname-`The Stick Grenade) introduced into service in 1915. The Stg24 was from the start an Offensive Grenade designed so that it could be safely thrown by an advancing soldier, without the need to take shelter (Its lethal zone being less than the distance it could be thrown). The Stick Grenade would remain in German service until 1945. |
