The exposed end of that loose wire is uncomfortably close to that contact.
i guess it's been already defused - that hole in plastic explosive could be where detonator was, besides they wouldn't give device like this to a nonprofessional in a fuzed condition (probably) (i hope so at least)
Good eye! Yep, it's been defused.

Oh yeah, you're probably right.
Everyone there is so uncomfortably close to heaven, that wire is probably a good reminder of keeping alert...
So how does it work? After you fire off a few rounds it blows up?
My guess is when you chamber the first bullet, the rest lift and release the contact. Boom

Exactly how it works: First round removed or fired moves the remaining rounds up in the cartridge which releases the IED switch and explodes.
From ied/booby trap training 🇫🇮, trainer outlined winterwar/contwar records from russians using such. Everything from children's teddy bears to fallen soldiers were used.
Finns did also umm made questionable "frozen russians" art by the roadsides behind enemy lines. Men standing, never moving.
Bruh they used them as fucking roadsigns.
Yeah unsurprisingly just about everybody in the army here gets some training on IEDs (or at least used to way back when I did my service in '01.)
Honestly we Finns aren't super good at pretty much anything, but one thing we've gotten down to a science over time is how to fight Russians.
I've personally heard a story of US military sabotaging ammunition in Vietnam, and even staging the scene around it.
