One other thought- this item may have to do with preparing the cartridge in use-
Does one end of a sealed paper cartridge need to be punctured and the charge poured in the barrel? Is the hole to locate the tool over the ball, sitting on the end of the barrel, so more pressure can be applied to start it in the bore? A maintenance tool does not need to be carried close to hand at all times.. A fighting tool does. Just tossing some ideas out. This thing has a definite purpose, and it is likely the screwdriver is a ancillary function, not a primary one. |

Thank you for the wonderful photos! Please post more. I still think due to the different designs that there must be some other functions.

Photo Ossetian with a screwdriver on his belt. And several screwdrivers of different shapes. But judging by the opinion of researchers from the Caucasus, the form could be different, but the functionality is the same...

the cutout slots in the tool could also be useful to get more leverage when put over a screw with a flat or winged head.

btw that ossatian is a brave man, pointing his gun towards his own face.

so much for my creative thoughts... the slot-hole-slot design would fit a winged nut perfectly but if there where none (not exactly, but alike) then I throw the towel :-)
