I guess I should explained myself fully in one post.  |
Nope you are correct, my first ten years in the military I never knew they had a tool for this. Bullet tip was always the standard.
The next 5 years I protected the tool like it was gold because no one else had one, the trick was to only use the tool yourself to do yours and anyone else that needed help. If you let someone use the tool themselves or borrow and pass it around it magically disappeared never to be seen again.
Two things in the military you never let anyone borrow, your front sight adjuster or your pen! If you do it's gone forever.
