Woaaaahhhhhh!!! Until I read the translation I thought the person was selling the grenades and gun! In the Army we were taught to destroy and bury used LAW rockets so the enemy couldn't use them for makeshift mortars. Not sure if I would want to dig a grenade!! Then again off subject but I also wonder if the primer etc in the grenade would still function after so many years in the ground and moisture etc???

Seek, and ye shall find!

Interesting.
I saw one of those Chinese detectors a couple weeks ago.
This older guys ( retired,) daughter bought him one of these.
I'm sure it will pick up targets but it sure looked like Junk.
Have you set up a test garden to see what the thing can do?
Now what are you going to do with those explosives?
Beeeee VERYYYYY  Carefulllllllll.

Problem is, these finds are quite common in some parts over here. S Mines (Ball Breakers) are the worst. Often connected into large groups, trip one and the lot go off. They jump up to hip height then detonate, hence the term ball breakers. I´ve been lucky, last I found where 15 years ago !!

They´re not movie props, but actual finds !! Although I doubt very much that they were found by this model or make of detector. These sort of finds are a regular occurrence over here in certain area´s !

IT is a MOST common thing to find overhere.... at least the grenades.

In fact if all german EOD units would try to remove all explosive devices from German forests they would spendt the next 60 years with that.

You shouldn't be scared if you dug up a grenade..... just notice the police about your find and they get things running either with civillian or military EOD.

I'm 25, single and looking for an cute girl around my age, ( + /- 4 ) which loves as well treasure hunting, detecting and the outdoors.

The answer is YES!!!

Most explosives become more sensitive after exposure to the elements. Wet and rusty does not mean safe or inert. If you find a UXO make note of the location and notify the authorities.

Stay Safe

A quick foot note, but in Belgium and France, about 17 people die each year from ordnance left over from WW I .And thants just the explosive shells (Mostly farm workers), then there´s the gas grenades, and the mines. We had a motorway worker die over here last year after his machine hit a bomb that the EOD had missed when laying the motorway 20 or 30 years ago, it was just under the surface, and he was planing the surface prior to laying a new one. How it didn´t explode with all the cars and trucks going over it I don´t know.
