I have one of the bottom ones in your picture.
I am still out collecting uniforms and web gear of SOG and their weapons first. With Vietnams booby-traps and grenades second, unless I find a great deal(s) on the ones from the Pathet Lao, Cambodia, and the VC.
Other wise the PAVN pretty much got theirs from China or Russia. These were the most reliable.
Jungle grenades were much more dangerous to the thrower than the reciever. And....Russia's grenades were much better made than the Chinese ones. just FYI.
