Abstract
A rubber fragmentation grenade has a body containing an explosive charge, a fuse assembly connected to the body, an elastomeric outer layer at least partly encompassing the body, and the outer layer being scored to provide a plurality of segments. The segments may be rectangular. Each segment may have a thickness, and may have a width greater than the thickness. The thickness may be at least one-third of the width. The body may include a cylindrical portion, and the outer layer may be a cylindrical sleeve encompassing the cylindrical portion. The segments may include a ring of segments. Each ring may include six segments. The explosive charge may be an elongated shape defining a charge axis and having opposed ends, the elastomeric outer layer being a cylindrical form being concentric with the charge. The elastomeric outer layer may extend beyond the ends of the charge.
