Cleaning Kit in stock

What are the items in the cleaning kit in the stock of the SKS? I only recognized was the brush for cleaning the barrel. The other two things I didn't recognize.

Motojoe's got it. Dead Thread! Actually one more thing. Mine came with more grease than I knew what to do with.

That'll be the cap on the cleaning kit itself.

It took quite a bit of blood built up under my thumbnail to learn how to remove the kit without further injuring myself.

Got one finger on my right hand caught.after about 15 minutes of pain I finally drug the rifle to my truck to get a screw driver where I fumbled for several minutes with my left hand getting the butt plate off. Never made that mistake again.

Lightbulb

I have a CJA Chinese SKS carbine,the cleaning kit contains a sight adjusting tool/screw driver,a punch,a brush,and a cleaning jag,four items.
The carbine looks like a Norinco,all parts interchangable,but was built in a different factory,and used a different importer.

If you put you're finger in to the trap door with the finger nail faceing down toward the bottom of the stock you will never go wrong!
