Well with all the arms stashes being found in the world's hot spots you
could have them as part of such. being checked over carefully. Or I'm
not sure if today's grenades come in individual cardboard tubes but if
not you could have a couple of figures ammoing up from a crate.Or really
off the wall you could show a dead terrorist festooned with em. Used as
booby trap/s singly or daisy chained.
