I have several tools and I am not sure what they are for and was hoping someone here could help.
1. Long Lee or Ross cleaning rod guide ?
2. P14 tool ?

Do you have a reference that you could post or sent me on it being a chamber insert for cleaning and how to use it? Would like that for my reference to keep with the tool. Thanks
I tried it and it is not for that purpose.Quote:

Anyone else have and idea? I think it is some kind of tool used to take the bolt apart like the tool for the Mausers.
The second tool has RM Pattern 1914 on it. I bet you that indicates a RIFLE, Magazine, pattern 1914. Which indicates to me that it is something associated with a RIFLE, magazine, pattern 1914. Quite what it does should be easy to establish
I am 99% sure the tool is used to strip the bolt. Used for removing the striker and spring assembly by hooking the slot over the sear engagement/cocking piece and pulling to the rear. It sure saves the workbench edge and chewing up a dime.

The tool is (I believe) for pulling the cocking piece to the rear and then unscrewing the firing pin/spring and cocking piece assembly from the bolt body.
As I said, is saves "wear and tear" on a dime :-)##
