| THE 1¼ LB. HAND INCENDIARY HAND BOMB |
|
The bomb provides a simple, quick method of setting fire to ?????, posts, buildings, crops, etc. To prepare it for use, remove the strip of adhesive tape and bakelite safety cap. |
|
To fire the bomb, hold it in the hand, and either striker the .22 rim fire cap with a stone, or strike the cap against a hard surface. The striking must be done sharply. |
|
There is a 5-second delay action after firing the cap, which allows the bomb to be pla-ced of thrown as required. |
|
The bombs are packed 24 in a box, and no preparation is required. |
