    What is this WW2 item for? SF Co 6-42?

    Found this in a junk box at a local flea market today. Anyone know what it is for?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    BAR tool case

    Looks like a BAR tool case to me, Here are two BAR combination tools, note the difference, there is also a third one that is different too. This tool would have been inside this case

    certainly not a clinometer case as it doesn't look anything like mine and I have the clinometer as well.
