2021-01-08 04:45:29 UTC  

Anytime. A great deal of technology came out of the War Between the States.

2021-01-08 04:45:32 UTC  

In german but readable

2021-01-08 04:46:26 UTC

2021-01-08 04:46:45 UTC  

Indeed.

2021-01-08 04:47:52 UTC  

It was 1943 and the R-4. That's what I was thinking of

2021-01-08 04:47:58 UTC  

But hand grenades and landmines were even used in their infancy in the Civil War.

2021-01-08 04:48:39 UTC  

Ok. I'd actually forgotten about that one.

2021-01-08 04:50:53 UTC  

But I thought it was 30s not mid 40s.

2021-01-08 05:06:16 UTC  

Ah.

2021-01-08 06:15:47 UTC  

Technically, hand grenades have been around since the 16th century, and were used in major conflicts, like say, the siege of Vienna

2021-01-08 12:37:20 UTC  

Yes, but the technology never progressed fat.

2021-01-08 12:41:07 UTC  

*far. Many European armies had grenadier battalions throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. Britain still has some grenadier battalions. My comment stems from if you look at the overall technology used, it was still in it's infancy as little progress was made. The hand grenades of the 17th and 18th centuries were, if I recall correctly, essentially small cannon balls with a fuse. In the Civil War, they illongated the shape, and added fins and a percussion cap detonator.

best grenade is jin grenade

2021-01-08 16:08:54 UTC  

ah i see

2021-01-08 16:09:39 UTC  

I remember reading somewhere that Ottoman grenades from the siege of Vienna were, as you said, cannon balls with fuses, but instead were made of glass

2021-01-08 16:16:23 UTC  

the hasbury grenades were iron balls with gunpowder inside that functioned like later early morter shells. The Ottomans on the other hand, had glass grenades, which could be thrown almost four times as far as the iron ones but didn't produce as much shrapnel.

2021-01-08 16:28:04 UTC  

French also had grenades when they were exploring the Texas coastline, they were clay pots filled with blackpowder and had a fuse

2021-01-08 17:07:21 UTC  

grenades used by the knights of malta beoive bishop piss was a nessacsary ingrideint

2021-01-08 17:35:54 UTC  

Indeed. Lots of interesting technological developments in that war. Also, I didn't know that Chaz.

2021-01-08 17:44:55 UTC  

wait, your telling me they used Bishop piss in their grenades?

2021-01-08 17:46:27 UTC  

yes

2021-01-08 17:52:53 UTC  

Ah

2021-01-08 17:53:35 UTC  

And now im thinking of the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch, thanks

2021-01-12 19:56:13 UTC

2021-01-12 19:56:13 UTC  

the pistol can take shotgun shells as ammo if needed
