Is it the tool to move the pin to release the trigger guard & internals from a double action revolver?

I got this while attending armorers school at Newport factory in 1980. I think the instructor called it a slave pin tool to install the pin the trigger pivots on.
I used it on Security Six, Police Six and Speed Six revolvers don't know if it can be used on later models.

First time I even seen one that big for a Ruger revolver.
yep, could be used as a "slave" pin, also may have been a "center punch, if pointed and a pin punch if flat,,,back in the 1950s Colt used that with a slotted end for the sight adjustment on the Woodsmans, came in the box with the gun and paper work. MY Dad left me his tool box from the WWII when he made tank parts and the drawers are full of these , all different sizes and all from early 1940s............
as he used say "tool room stock, make into what you need"

Here is how it was described in the Ruger Double Action Service Kit:
You could, at one time, get these from Brownells (not listed any more). Brownells originally put together the factory authorized service kit for Ruger

Thanks for posting the Brownell's add.
Thank you Ron, now with that information, one can turn one down quite easily enough , make a New tool,,,,,"as the need fits",, see my old man was right all along :wink:
I used that description to make one many years ago, I still have it somewhere.
How, if Ruger Poppers were still readily available; especially ad their old original price.
