Excellent work! I really did spend probably an hour starring at the handle reinforcement cylinder and tried mating it up to every screw, stud and hole on the rifle. I Googled everything I could think of. At 7.62x54r.net, I stumbled across a very nice collection of photos of the various cleaning kits and parts. The cylinder shows up in a couple of kit photos, but not as an individual photo. Even with that, I still couldn't figure out what the piece was for!

Nice job and thank you...

Nice to know. I was wandering what that cap was for.

Very nice step by step and great pictures.
I got two cleaning kits with my purchases, but didn't get a pouch. I didn't even know there was one.
