    Please help me ID these gunsmithing tools

    Hey guys,

    I recently bought a package deal for some gun parts and tools. There are a few items that I can’t ID. Based on the other items in the bag, I think they might be USGI armorer tools of some type for an M1A.

    Can any of you M1A gurus help me out?

      The part on the left mounts to the top of the receiver and allow you to reload your magazine with stripper clips while it is still in the rifle. They are removed when a scope is installed because it is in the way.

      The part on the right looks like a crush washer for an aftermarket muzzle brake - unless the M14 uses a gas seal.

      That is a field chamber reamer. Most likely just used for heavy cleaning or to remove a stuck broken case.

      Be sure to ask your doctor if depression, rectal bleeding, and suicide are right for you.

      In the United States a person's expertise on a subject is inversely proportional to their knowledge of the subject: The less they know about something, the more they become an expert on it.

              Do the 2nd and 3rd pictured items fit into the hex shaped hole of the first item?
