Product Description: A well-preserved US Inert M11A2 Practice Rifle Grenade 3-44, marked Lot E-21 and bearing a March 1944 production date. This ordnance-training example retains strong form and legible markings, with areas of paint loss and surface wear consistent with age and handling, all contributing to an appealing, authentic presentation.
Constructed to wartime specifications and rendered fully inert, the piece remains stable and suitable for display. Its patinated finish and period-correct stenciling offer both visual interest and historical value.
A solid and collectible example, this US Inert M11A2 Practice Rifle Grenade 3-44 presents well and would make a fitting addition to a curated grouping of WWII U.S. training ordnance.
Unloaded, practice, or dummy grenades, artillery shell casings, and similar ordnance items that have been rendered inert through BATF‑approved cuts or drilling—ensuring they cannot function as components of destructive devices—are not classified as NFA weapons. This example fully meets those compliance requirements and is offered strictly within the United States. NOT AVAILABLE FOR EXPORT.
Historical Description: The M11A2 is a World War II–era U.S. practice rifle grenade, produced for training purposes and fully inert in its original form. Constructed in cast metal with a distinctive stepped body, the grenade was designed to replicate the handling, weight, and ballistics of its live counterpart. Typically finished in blue paint to denote practice use, surviving examples often show surface wear from field exercises and handling.
A representative piece of mid-war U.S. training ordnance, the M11A2 remains a popular collectible for historical and display purposes.
