    These are shown in the 1933 A. G. Parker & Co. catalogue on page 72 under "Regulation Armourer's Tools", as "Guide, Muzzle". The barrel to which it is shown as fitted is a M.L.E. with the pressed foresight protector. The "Rod, Cleaning" also illustrated has a corresponding flat shoulder to stop the rearward movement of the rod.

    No doubt A.G. Parker had purchased quantities of obsolete or WWI surplus armourer's tools in the 1920s.
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
