frag grenades

Handheld shrapnel bombs

Frag grenades are fragmentation grenades—explosive devices designed to scatter metal shrapnel on detonation.

The casing breaks into fragments that become projectiles, maximizing casualties in a radius.

Standard infantry weapon in modern warfare.

In gaming, frag often becomes a verb meaning to kill with explosives or, more broadly, to kill an opponent: I fragged three guys before they got me.
