In fact I am pretty certain that is what they are, maybe they were doing some training?

Nope, and the indicators to that are the metal spring still intact, and the geometry that matches grenade fuzes, along with the two small posts the handle rotated off of by the spring. for sure not caster wheels. Just google grenade fuze and you will see what i mean

Yep. It is definitely the top off of a hand grenade. Have seen them found before. Was the area you found it in a common training site?

It is even easier to thank the good folks who try hard to help identify "what's its" for free. Just sayin
