M9A2 Rifle Grenade

While I have seen them mentioned in pubs most of these are simply referred to as the M9A1 but the tail fin is different as well as the method for connecting the tube to the firing mechanism. Other than that I don't know that much about them.

I think they might be in FM 23-30 from 1949, but I can't find it online.
Somebody has the paper version ?
 
I have FM23-30 1949 w/ch1-5 and I cannot find any reference to the M9A1 except maybe where in Ch4 a reference to M9A? is made but the last digit was blotted out when he added the change with a binder clip. The changes are neat because they address newer launchers as well as the energa grenade and practice M11A3 grenade.
