Seal something. My first thought was a fancy hole puncher - that was before I began to read other guesses.

Not so baffling this time and I expect many will have a good idea. Still, ED209 and DRMW are prohibited from answering!! LOL. Hint enough for everyone else ;-) This message has been edited by DRMW on 2011-12-11 12:54:36 This message has been edited by DRM...
you got a fancy one!
I have the old school plain metal and plastic, the fancy one you got is a clever design! -MW
I liked this guess.
Seeing the photo I just added, the item looks like some sort of guitar!
Heavy Metal has always been my favorite!
As I said before I look forward to meeting Ma D in person one day ;-)
I've been trying to Google....
items for this hobby - we all know what hobby - but everything is coming up with dead ends. Knowing the size of the item might help..? Maybe another pic with something next to it..! I like these guessing games and as such does it hold a gun steady, or for...
These look like another 'Guess the object' pics...!!!
One day I'll come to visit so you can take me shooting...I can do clay pigeon shooting and phesant shooting here but illegal to shoot handguns which I would love to try for th skill of target shooting. Oh and no these extra pics havn't helped..!! LOL Your...
it'll be our pleasure....
Let me know if you are ever out here, I guarantee you'll have a 'blast'! -MW
I'll take you up on that....
I think your near Bill so it would be great to meet some more Purists Yours, Andy.
Now the answer is out what are these bits..?
another fascinating hobby which unfortunately I can't participate in Air pistol or air soft just don't do it compared to the real thing..!! Speak soon, Andy.
You guys are on track. Firearms related.
Here is a new picture for sense of scale....
Mmmmm...
obviously one bit pivots within the other but still stuck. Is it related to the gun or the ammo used in it..? Very interesting Andy.

T. Bean has got it! Let's take a closer look...
at the J.B Johns aluminum 1911 bushing tool. The tool is made specifically for the 1911 handgun. I think this is a good opportunity to review the 4 basic rules of gun safety. You might have heard these before or a similar version, and I like to frequently...
A very peculiar tool.
I have to think and search hard for the answer. Yours having an avant garde design making it more difficult. I learned something today. Thanks Michael. Regards Tyler
Thanks Tyler. Here is a more basic version
in plastic. Does the same thing, but does not have the neat way of catching and inserting the cap as the JBJ does....
Cool...
how often do you need to take it apart to clean it..? You'll have to post a masterclass one day on full dissasembly, cleaning and reassembly for us Great thread, Andy.
Glad you enjoyed it Andy.
I think these threads are fun, and the cool thing is we all get a look at other hobbies and interests. I clean my guns every time I shoot them. That is not entirely necessary on something like the 1911, which is a real workhorse, but most gun enthusiasts ...
