The Mk 2 defensive hand grenade is a fragmentation hand grenade (sometimes written Mk II) used by the U.S. armed forces during World War II and in later conflicts including the Vietnam War. The Mk II was standardized in 1920 replacing the Mk I of 1917. It was phased out gradually, the U.S. Navy being the last users. It was replaced by the M26-series and later M61 and M67 grenades. On 2 April 1945 the Mk II and Mk IIA1 were redesignated the Mk 2 and Mk 2A1.

This is a match that I played not so good (I know) and was called hacker. I know I would do a better score if I used the Pave Low before, but I want to do here in AlterIW like my Steam account, with all challenges done, and Transformer was a challenge I had not done yet, then I was trying to. Other thing I was trying to was Extended Mags for SCAR-H, for the mastery, after done in this match, i only needed to do the Shotgun attachment. My bro [NUKE] JeaN was in this game too, now we have our own clan: W4$ - War For Money.
