What’s the thing in the bag?
It seems to have a hole the same size as the Rod.

It's the alternate compensator to use with lead bullets.
I think you're correct. If I had RTFM, I would see, on p. 26, a picture of it being removed with a similar-looking tool through the hole. But it says to use 2.5 mm hex wrench and this is round and twice the diameter.
I think you've answered my question -- thanks.

That rod is to replace the broken bones in your hand after you shoot it.

If you shoot a lot of lead bullets and get the inside of the comp and nooks and crannies around the comp packed with lead fouling, put that rod through the holes in the front of the extended comp and use it for leverage to turn the comp for removal.
The 2.5 mm hex wrench is just for tightening the locking screw on the comp. Loosen that screw first, then apply the rod if needed.
Jacketed ammo doesn't create the lead fouling that will solder the comp in place.

500 Magnum. now were talking!
That rod and allen wrench is for removing the compensator.
But that gun needs a shorter barrel for maximum 'fun' and 'excitement'!!!!

The metal bar can also be used as a splint for your hand and wrist after putting a few rounds downrange! LOL! Enjoy!
If you can not keep both hands on the gun,
you might be looking at, a gun in the face.
But, is she single?
