?'s about the M6 TOOL ROLL

[Sgt. Rob P.]

Recently picked up one of these. Checking Billy Pyle's book on accessories, etc. for the M1 Garand he shows the tool roll. But there is no mention of just what tools go in it. Does any body have a list of names, pictures, etc. for the tools that would go in it??

Mine is the WW2 variation, also have a 1953 M6 too, different fabric. Billy Pyle's book "The Gas Trap Garand" page 211 has the following list of contents:

1 hammer, bz, double bell face 3 oz
1 oiler, oval 3 oz w/cap & chain
1 plier, side cut, flat nose, 6 Bernard type
1 punch, drive pin, special .12 pt
1 screwdriver, common, 3
1 set, stacking swivel screw, No 1 "

Well I have the oiler. No pics for the tools themselves? That is what I would like to see so I know what to look for.

Bumping this back to the top. Come on guys, this is where I come for expert information and I am a little surprised that nobody has info on the tools used for the M1 Garand that were kept in the M6 tool roll. The list that RCS provided is a nice start, but does any one have any pics? Are the tools marked in some manner?

Thank You Gentleman.
