Fellas,
Here's a little brain scratcher for you this morning. What is this doo-dad?
No other information (or even dimensions) except the two pics. A gentleman is trying to trade me some stuff and this is in the lot.
Thoughts?

Thanks!

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.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

It's a mainspring compressor vise for a musket. It compresses springs for handling. If you search it on line you'll find how it's used and price.

Could it be used to move say a sight bed or front sight for POI shift with hook going over the sight and you tighten the screw just my best WAG thanks for the share it looks an interesting piece.
