Grenadier rifle grenades do next to nothing to Conscripts, especially when they use Hit the Dirt. You can eat one or two and still win the engagement easily.
It's kinda too good right now. You can counter it with PGren grenades, but because it's pretty much impossible to dodge grenades right now anyways, there's almost no downside to using it in an engagement.
I'll have to look again, I remember reading somewhere that they couldn't. Regardless, it's generally something that I just don't think of getting until later in the game when I have the munitions to spend on them.
I don't really like them that much. They both require your Grenadiers to be standing still in order to actually shoot, and I'd rather be as mobile as possible. I do get G43s later in the game though.
Another StratTalk up, looking at Soviet T2-T3, and another FPVOD, showing a game with the extended T1 into T2 Ostheer strat I showed in the first StratTalk.
