Thought you guys might like to see to this. I resently picked this up and only got it since I have never seen one. In fact, no one I have talked to about it has ever seen a training version of this item.

Any ideas on this, like who used it? The can that came with the item was not marked, so it might not be the original can for it.

I have a few similar devices,and fuzes and "cartridges" that were crafted by one of our illustrious members. They are molded from originals, so they are near exact copies. Maybe this is one from his shop.

I don't think so ... the one guy I know who actually saw one before (on Fugi) said they came in a box. They were listed as Code H (this being many years ago) and they destroyed them. So these were issued at some, to someone, meaning they were manufactured this way by a company.
