Actually, both were from eBay. The squared one I picked up years ago for $5 delivered, when no one knew what they were.

Bit of nitpicking and useless semantics. But those are actually for not "blanks" but wooden bullet catridges (puuluoti). Well, of course those are blanks too but actual blanks in the Finnish Army were with "wax bullets" (called räkäpää/snot head) that did not need those "bullet smashers".


Edit. Spelling

So you are saying you would be ok being shot with a wax bullet? Because I am thinking a smasher would be better than no smasher.:P

Well, I don't know about that. :)

But smashers are all post war, pre war they shot "snot heads". Without any smashers. But I should think pre war they shot mostly "cheek shots" i.e. shouted "laukaus" "sarrrrja"! :)
