Cream cracker

  • cyngast by cyngast moderator

    Has anyone heard of a German shell called a cream cracker? I haven't seen it before, that I recall anyway, but it appears at the end of the entry for 3/1 on this page.

    And, yes, I have been through all the slang glossaries I can find online without finding it.

    That's definitely a new one on me. Perhaps the author was trying to start a new trend which didn't catch on!

    Probably produced a white smoke on detonation rather than black like a jack johnson
