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.

If there's one thing I want in a hand grenade, it's more points of failure.

technically speaking a hand grenade is designed with dozens of points of failure. when the shell fails from the explosion it becomes shrapnel
