Nkomo Posted March 14, 2022 Share #1 Posted March 14, 2022 A POMZ-2M anti-personnel mine that was brought back by a 3rd SFG soldier from Afghanistan circa 2008/2009 time frame. As you can see, the body is completely inert. I added the stick myself as I'd love to make a display out of it. I am also looking for a replica fuse for the top as well. You can tell this is a POMZ-2M because of the 5 rows of square preformed fragments and because it has threads on the top for a screw on fuse. These mines were used by the Taliban as booby traps behind doors, left on paths/trails that allied soldiers travelled, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCapturephotos Posted March 14, 2022 Share #2 Posted March 14, 2022 Very interesting to look at and very reminiscent of earlier ordnance from WW1 and 2 time periods. Thanks for sharing and good luck with your display! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
