Modern Chinese Grenades

Here are some pics of modern chinese grenades. May be there are some more in collections.

Stickgrenades Type 77 - 1







 
This might be a bit of a daft question, but how do you arm a stick grenade that is fired from a cup discharger?

Some really nice grenades. I am partial to the short stick version. Grenades of all eras seem to have class. Great shots of great nades. Thanks kindly for showing....Dano
 
The unknown is the Type 72 if my memory serves me right.

Most grenades shown above are 25+ years old, so they maby be "new" to most people but not really modern I would say.
 
Here the Type 73.

I'm looking for a plastic cap for one of the sticks in the second photo, if anyone knows of one available.....

Has anyone ever heard of a Chinese copy of a MKII? I picked up a body many years ago, the story given to me was that it was a copy. I've never been too sure. The fuze well is significantly smaller than US grenade fuzes, otherwise the grenade is well made and a good copy. EODGUY, this is your area, any thoughts?
