This shows up a lot in games, you can tell it by the recessed seam. It's a gas bottle. Wikipedia shows [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Reservehigh20048611453.jpg M69s] with a recessed seam, but it's not as deep or as sharply delineated. Is our M69 in the pic altered to look a bit more authentic? [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 18:03, 13 August 2012 (CDT) | This shows up a lot in games, you can tell it by the recessed seam.

I can tell you right now, NO movie or Television show has ever used, presented or handled a live M67 handgrenade ever. For the sheer sake of 'safety', only M69 training grenades or other custom made dummies have been used in any sort of movie or TV show. Is it useful to show the original grenade? Why? We explain what it's supposed to be, but let's get real, no one ever uses the real grenade, ever. It's always the dummy grenade.
