WWII/ Korean War U.S. M1 Garand Combination Tool-Folding GI Rifle Maintenance Tool
Original-style U.S. military combination maintenance tool designed for use with the M1 Garand rifle. This compact folding tool was carried as part of the rifleman’s cleaning and maintenance equipment and incorporates multiple functions for servicing the Garand in the field.
The tool features a steel cylindrical handle/body with a pivoting folding arm and various working surfaces intended for routine rifle maintenance and disassembly. Its compact design allowed it to be stored with other cleaning equipment in the M1 Garand’s buttstock compartments.
This example shows honest age and service wear with areas of finish loss, oxidation/patina, scratches and handling marks. The folding mechanism and components appear intact from the photographs. No obvious modern markings are visible in the supplied photos. I would advertise it as U.S. M1 Garand combination tool, period/type unknown unless markings are found, rather than guaranteeing WWII manufacture without additional markings or provenance.
A nice accessory for completing an M1 Garand display, GI field gear collection, or WWII/Korean War U.S. militaria grouping.
Condition: Good used condition with expected finish wear and age-related patina. Please review photographs closely for exact condition.
