What is It 3-30-14?

I got this in a bunch of reloading tools at a garage sale this weekend. What is it?

Something for the scrap pile.

Stand for a powder measure? Possibly used with a progressive loader, mounted on the turret?

Looks like a stand for a cheap powder measure

A stand for a powder measure for a turrent/progressive press

Another hint: this seems to be part of it. Sort of a large metal paper clip that is twisted, with lugs on each end that engage the slots in the metal bracket.

Okay, I'll try to make it easier for you guys by posting a photo of the complete assembly:

If everyone is stumped, I'll post the answer tomorrow.

Do you need any more information?

It's for fletching arrows, as in archery.

Ding, ding, ding, ding!!!! We have a winner!

I deduced from the socket that nocks the arrow that it must be for archery, and Google eventually came up with a photo that verified it.

Now does anyone recognize who the maker might be? I located photos of very similar tools, but nothing related to the sticker which says "Eastern Sports Montclair, NJ".
