Not a hole punch, no - though it does sort of look like one.

Looks like that screw on the handle adjusts it to what ever size of a "stud"? Like a button thing for Levi's or other clothing?

No, but you're getting warmer ...
Nothing to do with studs - get your mind out the gutter, will ya'?

The buttons that you press together rather that sew on? Like snaps are put together that way.

For shoe or boot hooks? A tool used by shoemakers.

Oh man, hope I'm wrong, but it's not a dental tool for fillings, or caps. I don't think they had those back then. But that's my guess I mean a tool to press them in place.

Ouch again!
No, not a dental tool.
It's not a bullet press or mold, no, but good guess!
No, although I admit it does look like a leather punch ...
