Cees I am wondering what was used to keep the end with the loop secured, on the one in the pic there is vestigal remains of thin wire or something?

This one looks intact, it’s noting but a piece of thick steel with an angle at one end and a loop as a handle at the other. That’s it.
Cheers

thanks Cees
What I meant was does anyone have a photo of an intact example?

You have a photo right there Peter:p
Indeed this thing is to clear jammed links. During one of our recoveries we found an identical tool.
Cheers

Thanks Ian
Do you have a photo or drawing or anything?

According to Wallace Clarke’ ‘British Aircraft Armament Vol 2 (practically aircraft gun pornography) it’s a link clearance tool for a .303 Browning.
