    I found this next to my furnace when I bought my new house. It's an intact Autofyrstop glass grenade with original CBM fluid inside. Not sure of the year or value, but it does not match anything I can find online. The only related grenades are rounded at the top, mine is flat on the top. Any idea of how rare this might be? I'm curious to know. It's a great conversation piece.

      Probably contains CCL4 ( Carbon Tetrachloride) a poisonous product so be careful not to drop it? Was it sitting in its spring triggered holder? There should be info. On the bracket/holder. Bob
