The C-16 Fragmentation Grenade is a spherical pre-stressed chrome shell design that was on the market during the latter years of the Old Republic, and became a favourite of the wretched Rebel Alliance and the infestation known as the New Republic that succeed it. Incased within its small shell is a fist-sized cube of detonite. Its light-mass made this grenade easy to toss. Using the grenade is effortless. Remove the restraining pin, and flicking the detonator switch activates the grenade. Within four seconds it explodes. To alter the delay, the user twists the small dial inset on the bottom of the grenade. It is actually possible to abort the grenade's detonation via depressing the "standby" stud and reattaching the restraining pin.
