It's a cup for a dwarf who is hung like a gnat.

BlkDrew: Nope. Not ammo related. It's a part, a component of a larger device, that is used in manufacturing.

Nothing like a metal nipple protector for the cold months! Make sure your nipples are dry or the fire department will have to come pour hot water on it to get it to release.

Not the foggiest idea, but I know that at some point, I'll need one for a project! Especially if it is a nip protector!

My nips don't need protection to project. Quite the opposite, in fact.
