Hello all, I was unsure of where to post this topic so I thought this place to be best. I had a quick id question. Does anyone know what this item was used for? I know that it belongs to the 5th Battalion French army paratrooper unit. Also, the seller told me that it was used with a rod that would be put into a rifle barrel. If this is in fact the case, I am looking for a name of what that would be called because Google is being less than helpful. If anyone could offer me some suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated in advance. Thank you all for your time!
