Gave my son my WWII Springfield M1 over the weekend. As we were inspecting it I noticed a small rattle from the stock. Opened up that little trap door and found two items, a small canvas bag holding a broken down cleaning rod and this item. Can't find it in any of my M1 material. What is it and what is is used for?

That's a Danish .30-06 training round for size comparison and a small container of grease/lube (?) that this item had punctured over the years.

M10 tool, cleaning rod handle, gas nut wrench and bolt disassembly tool all in one. Im sure there are other uses?
