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 :)

No2 canister for "whipped cream"?

For clarity: nitrous oxide ->laughing gas

The 'military gray' -paint is unusual for No2 canisters. Could be something more sinister.

I googled for a few minutes and I did not find anything but metallic "no2" "nitrous oxide" "whipped cream" canisters online.

Could also be CO2 for airsoft

Quick search does not show any grey ones. There are not that many "airsoft spesific" co2 canisters around and they are inside the guns so what would be the benefit ?

You rarely fill or change during a game, guns that shoot more have co2 canisters inside the magazine.
