Loading tool question....

Hi Frank...thanks for the reply in regard to your thoughts on the "concensus of opinions". I knew I didn't find a collectable gem, but I must have missed previous discussions about these reproductions and the byf markings inscribed in them. I happened to have been looking for a useable loading tool to accompany my shooter and I to the range & field. In this case, I was glad to pay the $10.00 asking price, cuz all I want to do is load the magazine without ripping up my fingers (darn magazine springs are strong).

So thanks for the response, I appreciate it. So to, Mausers comments regarding "fakes". However, in this isolated case, I was glad to have found it instead of having to take a "collectable" piece to the range and out in the field.

BTW, what does an original loading tool sell for these days? Anyone?
