Well...something to do with marking or figuring elevation on a piece of light artillery?

[look] [blink] [look closer] a whatziss that I actually know? Can't be ... Is that the feed hopper off a Japanese Type 11 light machine gun? Took standard 5-round rifle ammo clips, stripped the rounds, and fed them to the gun. Ingenious idea, but didn't work so well in the field.

C'mon guys, this ones almost a giveaway...! Wolfwalker is wrong, but he's on the right track...

Magazine loader for a weapon using a rimmed cartridge? For a Bren, possibly?
