function Update() {

 if(Input.GetKeyDown("e"))
 {
 spawnBullet(grenade);
 }

}
var grenade;
spawnBullet()
{
    Instantiate(grenade, GameObject.Find("SummonEscape_Spawn").transform.position, Quaternion.identity);

 grenade.rigidbody.AddForce(transform.forward*100);
 yield WaitForSeconds(3);
 Destroy(grenade);

Not tested, but should work.

Does it spawn an actual gernade or is that part of the coding which is used in the script?

Wait I read over the script and it makes so much sense to me. Thanks for the help. I will try out the script.
