Hello Mr Paul,
Sadly no information on the Kugal rifle grenade variants. It appears the Lanz Mortar fuze is again influencing the one Kugal with the brass base. The other with the nose fuze is a complete mystery. I know there was much experimentation with the Kugals as there were millions of them to work with. Always the quest for a grenade that will explode on contact with the enemy and not with the thrower........
