Need inert M 41 20 Pound Fragmentation Bomb

Postby M2 Cletrac » Sun Aug 21, 2011 2:57 pm

We need to locate a M 41 20 pound fragmentation bomb with the AN-M110A1 fuse.
If anyone knows where one is we can purchase or borrow to reproduce please let us know.
Thanks

Do not know how to post a picture, so here is a link to what a M 41 looks like.
Thanks for the suggestions. We are still looking for an original to copy.

Found several AN-M41A's in collectors hands.
We are arranging to do a 3D scan and maybe a casting with drawings of details.
Will try to post pictures or links when we get them done.
First generation AN- M41A should be hanging under wings of a P-40 at Reno...
Thanks for the help.

Well, The P 40 did not make it to Reno. The weather did not permit any taxi, brake, and flight testing.
She is scheduled to be in Cleveland the first week of October at Piston Power.
FiFi is suppose to be there too and a P 51.
Here is a link to Piston Power 2011.

We got the AN-M41 repops done and will post a photo when I get it...and figure out how to post it....
They are not exact repops, but will pass the scrutiny of the average Joe..

I have a M41A1 20lb Fragmentation Bomb with the little prop fuse, Complete! The real thing inert! It has been hanging in my hanger for over 20 some years. Need to get rid of my bomb & missle collection.
