Yes But how du you use it?

Your kit is probably specific to a particular type and model of weapon. The micrometer tip fits to the end of the long rod, the other accessories are to guide the rod as it is inserted into the bore and to protect the breech. The dial is read at different positions along the bore to assess wear. Rifle bore wear guages are still made but modern ones use digital technology.

Maybe a headspace gauge?

Well, it comes in a very nice box. Not totally sure on the use, but according to the printing it should never be used for nuckel sex. Cheers, Mike

That was my guess.

Headspace would be my guess to. I think Eddy and spartan are right. Heck, what else could it be ?

Looks to me to be a bore erosion gage. It is definitely NOT a headspace gage.
