What does the 'tool' (inside the oil bottle) look like it is intended to do??? Eric's pic isn't clear...

It's as if the post was made into a diamond shape but the point blunted. I'm sure it was designed to pick up oil and deposit it precisely.

I gave the entire rig to my youngest son as a present. I've since replaced the pistol with one not quite as nice but still better than the average Portuguese.

Hence the term 'dauber'.

It looks like (to me, from Eric's pic) a thick blunt screwdriver shape. I know the grips use slotted screws, but the firing pin spring guide uses a slot too. No one else has given an opinion besides oil dauber so I'll go back to downloading pr0n and shut up...
