M3 "Grease Gun"; so called because it was a simple, cheap, tubular affair
which looked a lot like an old-school grease-gun. There's a huge,
highly-detailed photograph of one here:
http://www.cvcycles.com/jetfixer/Museum/M3Greasegun.JPG , and while I don't
know anyone with a dewat at the moment, I do know that Airsoft makes a
pretty decent airgun version of it which handily beats all our 'replica'
/prohibited devices legislation because it's a functional airgun (fires
little plastic bb things which annoy pets and spouses and jam up the
vacuum), so Ottawa can go bark up a tree.
(Burt Lancaster's character in the wonderful "Go Tell the Spartans" uses one
throughout.)
