It was a ‘pineapple’ style grenade...I bet there’s a pineapple in the grenade holder by accident.

“Well? Where do you keep YOUR grenades???
In a grenade holder, of course.”

Bingo! That’s where I keep mine!

That’s exactly what my wife told me. But I wouldn’t listen to her.

I guess it’s the sofa for me tonight...

Well, it’s loaded, but the spring is not wound up.

So it’s harmless.

Unrelated, but since I am talking about my Thompson on this thread, I am going to comment on the round magazine.

Yes, they hold way more ammo than a stick. 50 vs. 30 in the case of my Thompson.

Not all that much heavier, but noticeable.

The big problem is they rattle like hell when you move. There’s a lot of play. Just a bad idea to do anything but sit and ambush someone.

Or, I suppose attack while there is gun fire and artillery going off everywhere.
