Which safety set describes a riot-control grenade with striker release?

• A. he, frag, move, chem, fire, c/s, 1hrwt
• B. he, frag, move, c/s, 1hrwt
• C. he, frag, move, jet, c/s
• D. he, frag, move, 1hrwt

Answer: (A)

Understanding the safety set for a riot-control grenade with striker release hinges on two essential pieces: a chemical riot-control payload and the ignition/arming method associated with a striker release. A riot-control device isn’t just high-explosive and fragmentation; it must also carry the chemical irritant (represented by the chemical component) and a mechanism that involves a striker being released to arm the fuze (represented by the fire component). A set that includes these elements plus the standard explosive components (high explosive and fragmentation), handling considerations (move), and usual safety/test descriptors (c/s, 1hrwt) provides a complete, realistic description of the item’s safety profile. The other options omit the chemical payload or the striker-release ignition element, making them incomplete for this type of grenade.
