    Default grenades?

    is it possible for a normal civ to purchase and or own live grenades whether they be hand or for launching? and if so how /where does one go about doing this?

    im pretty sure you cant have one.......i would think the gov would say u have no legal purpose for an explosive device.....what would u use it for self defence???? i really would be shocked if someone would say u could possibly get one legally

    Yes, provided you live in a state where Destructive Devices are legal AND you register it (assuming you can pass) with the ATF and pay the $200 fee.

    Each grenade must be applied for separately, and you pay the $200 fee for each one.

    Grenades are considered destructive devices and I'm not sure if they are legal to own. If they are legal, it likely requires ATF approval. I'm moving this thread to the NFA/Class 3/Title II forum, as there's likely someone who frequents that part of the site that can answer your question.

    Dude, if you look out your window and don't see anyone talking to themselves and holding their finger to their ear today, look again tomorrow... the black SUVs will likely be parked around the corner!

    they gave me the cheap guys, apparently they're plumbers that always sit outside watching me in their time off and never come out of their van. I wonder what they're always doing in the back of that van anyway :P
