Design
[edit]The Type 82 is different from on its predecessors, Type 67 and Type 77 grenades, which was inspired by the Stielhandgranate design, in particular, the Model 24.
The Type 82 uses the conventional oval shape[2] and employs a special design which allows discreet and safe user operation.[3][4]
Variants
[edit]The Type 82 consists of the Type 82-1, the Type 82-2 and the Type 82-3.[5]
Adoption
[edit]The Type 82-2 is one of the standard hand grenades of the People’s Liberation Army alongside the Type 77, Type 86 and DSS-161. The other Type 82 variants[6] were not adopted.
