Hi guys,
What's the correct look for them? Do they have a rubber cap on them because I see that some people's vary like they're dented etc.? Some are sorta pointy and some are inverted.
Thanks,
Spencer

Yes, when not loaded with actual smoke grenades, there is a rubber cover that goes over the tube to keep water and debres out. When loaded, the smoke grenade is a light seafoam green colar and sticks out of the launcher about 1 1/2". You can see them in the picture below of the 3 ID Bradley at Baghdad Inter. Airport.

If you are talking about the rubber covers, they are either conical or concave, pushed in. If you mean the grenades themselves, they are cylinders. Tamiya molds them with the rubber covers in place.
