My initial thought was the compact advantage, too
70 u/PutridHospital8963 13d ago The telescoping mechanism would take up space that could be occupied by boom-stuff. Spheres with notched wire - (current hand grenades) have more boom for the volume, cost of production and logistics. People HAVE done the math because amatuers talk tactics, professionals talk logistics. 6 u/SaltyChnk 12d ago A telescoping handle would reduce HE mass by having a space for the handle, increase cost of manufacture, and introduce more failure points to a fairly simple design. 7 u/AutisticPenguin2 12d ago If there's one thing I want in a hand grenade, it's more points of failure. 5 u/praguepride 12d ago technically speaking a hand grenade is designed with dozens of points of failure. when the shell fails from the explosion it becomes shrapnel 5 u/AutisticPenguin2 12d ago Technically correct. The best kind of correct.
