Overview

A Minigrenade weighs little more than half the mass of a standard hand grenade which, when filled with high explosives, means it has a less-powerful charge. However these minigrenades are preferred by infantry tasked with clearing bunkers and other confined spaces, since the resulting weaker blast is less likely to injure the thrower. Besides high explosives minigrenades can contain other types of filler.[1][2]
