Any Suckers Out There?
Here's a chuckle.
I was scrolling through the Gunbroker.com auction site and ran across an auction for a "Thompson center clean out plug HAWKEN RENEGADE TC" with a minimum starting bid or $8.99.
Check it out: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=274786964
Perhaps the ad should contain the following statement: If you don't want to spend twenty-cents for this item at your local hardware, this may be for you.

It was told to me that once, there used to be a wrench that removed the very early vintage breech plugs from Thompson Center Hawken and Renegade rifles. My understanding is they used to be able to be removed. Why, I have no idea. So maybe this was a replacement part for that.
