        And IF you have an orig GI plastic one like above ( not a repro ) , or the metal tube , and an orig. M-10 combo handle ( not a repro) , you can put the handle in where the pull though goes. This allows the rods/ brush / tip in thier pouch to go into the other hole with the grease pot. The repros are ever so slightly off on thier ID / OD that they won't go together.

            I purchased a 'surplus' quart can of lubriplate about 10 years ago. I'm gonna be long dead before #1 son gets to the bottom of that can!

                There are two types of Lubriplate. The white grease is WWII and the brownish colored is post war.
