I just tried out a sample of those grenades. They're kind of fun, but there are significant problems with them:

-about 7 separable parts which fly apart vanish on the field (well, 6 you get to hang onto the cotter pin and ring)
-poor bb ejection (a small fraction of pellets actually leave the grenade)
-not very durable (casing broke on maybe 10th throw)
-inconsistent timer (like +300%/-50%)

The bang is nice but the scattering parts is very frustrating. 5 out of the 7 loose parts are critical to the functioning of the grenade. The other two are supplied by a small qty of spares. Lose any one of the 5 peices and you have a paperweight.
