The last version of the "Potato Masher".
This was a significant departure from the previous design and was clearly aimed
at making grenade production as simple as possible. The pull fuze and hollow
handle were eliminated in favour of a solid handle
with a simple formed threaded end to screw into the head. The warhead was
modified to use the Bz39, (Brennzünder 39) "Ignition Fuze 39", which was the
standard fuze in use for the Eihandgranate 39 "Egg Hand Grenade".
One advantage of this configuration is the handle was not required for the
grenade to function, since the head was now self-contained.
