This lot features a U.S. M1A2 grenade projection adapter, dated 1945, marked “LOT UOD-500-12 1945 MOD 3-69”, and accompanied by an inert grenade for display purposes. The launcher retains correct wartime configuration and markings, with surface wear consistent with age and service use. The included inert grenade is non-functional and intended strictly for collector display. Overall condition is solid, with no major damage noted.
The M1A2 adapter was designed to be mounted to standard U.S. service rifles, allowing infantrymen to launch rifle grenades for increased battlefield versatility. These devices saw widespread use during the closing stages of World War II and continued service into the postwar period. Examples retaining clear markings and paired with inert ordnance are increasingly difficult to find, particularly in complete displayable form.
A desirable addition for collectors of U.S. WWII infantry equipment or ordnance-related artifacts, this grouping presents well and offers strong visual impact. Ideal for display alongside period rifles, field gear, or training material, this piece represents an authentic example of late-war American military innovation.
