The design of at least one of the tools seems to be such that a sub-caliber cartridge could be slipped by the extraction groove or rim under the spring and then be held by it's tension in the "U" cutout.

I would guess that if I am correct that this device would then be used to insert the cartridge in the chamber since most folks fingers would not fit in the open ejection port far enough to securely insert the small cartridge. The other tool that we can only see the spring side of is probably similar, but has a different handle.

Jerry, Marvin, what are your thoughts on my speculation of the tool's use...

regards,

John Sabato
