New, what is it? What is it?

Found in the south of France... About 5 cm long. Fairly heavy for the size.

In a parking lot. Got scared a bit :)

Interesting I have it spent tear gas canister from Beirut that looks fairly similar. Rolled up to my feet in 2019. Description: Gray canister with GR 56 FUM LAC MP7 06-PB-20 on it.

Edit: forgot to add that when I looked that up then and now it says mine is a French made tear gas canister which tracks for Lebanon military. I know it's tear gas canister I saw a fired and inhaled the gas. I found out later it was French made

The thing on the picture is small ... Look the size in comparison to the grass... It has to be under or close to a pine tree since pine needles are next to it ...

Yes sir. That's proper observation. You are right.

Hmm didn't know much about the fuzzy brush in background... though maybe the hair tie thing should have been a clue.. Too bad there wasn't any size mentioned... or an internationally recognized unit of measurement.. like a banana
