Practice grenades (inert types)

I have seen many different practice (stick) grenades the last years. Throwing dummies I mean.
Most of them have bad or no markings, but look genuine. I'm looking for more photos on other types.
I can't tell if these are all German. They could be used and constructed by other nationalities.
Maybe someone knows something about the origin of these practice grenades.

Pistol grenades :

Several types of pistol grenades were developed and used by the German Army in WW2.
For these specific grenades existed two different weapons, the normal smooth bore flare pistol, and the rifled barrel Kampfpistole.
Development of these special rounds started in the 1930's.

Click the image on the right to see some types that existed for the two different pistol types.
