If they are, explain the thousands of "dummy" gernades for sale everywhere that have pins in them.

No, some CMA/ASPs (Central Magazine and Ammo Supply Point) require unit to turn pin or spoons in as proof of use. However they just send them to DRMO afterwards.

It's a cotter pin and a pull ring. You can make your own from the contents of any hardware store.

Only if it is not attached to a live grenade.
Feel lucky... in the PRK, it is illegal to own a dummy grenade now!

Yep, that's the only 'control' that I'm aware of on grenade pins. My unit insisted on getting back 1 pin for each grenade that was used. I always wondered what kept someone from replacing the pin with...oh... a straightened paperclip and turning the pin back in.

No, as far as I know, small cotter pins with metal rings are still completely legal to own.....
till the libtards find out

no it's not illegal.
However I strongly advise you against holding both parts of a grenade ( one in each hand ) for a prolonged ( more than 1 sec ) period of time

You can make a grenade pin. Next I bet you'll tell us we can make hamburger.
