Variable distance detonation mechanism

A grenade, comprising:

• an explosion chamber including an explosive charge to which an ignition charge is connected;
• a primer and trigger coupled to the ignition charge for detonation of the explosive charge held within the explosion chamber;
• a variable distance detonation mechanism coupled to the trigger and the primer for allowing controlled detonation of the grenade a specific distance from a launch point thereof;
• the variable distance detonation mechanism includes a rotating activation mechanism that acts upon the trigger for detonation of the grenade
• wherein the rotating activation mechanism includes a trigger nut mounted upon an adjustment bolt such that the trigger nut selectively rotates relative to the adjustment bolt in a manner creating longitudinal movement of the trigger nut along the adjustment bolt for actuation of the trigger.

• the variable distance detonation mechanism includes a rotating activation mechanism that acts upon the trigger for detonation of the grenade;
• including a trigger stop mechanism preventing movement of the trigger;
• wherein the trigger stop mechanism includes a bolt secured to the trigger such that the trigger may only be moved when a stop plate member is moved out the way of the bolt permitting movement of the trigger.
