Hello there
Can anyone help me ID these items? I found them detecting in some woods near Philadelphia. I think the funnel like item is made of copper, the other thing feels like it's brass. Thought maybe they have to do with old hunting equipment?
Thanks!

The binocular looking thing looks like a salt and pepper shaker to me. The one hole being for salt and two hole for pepper. Just my two cents.

It looks like threads inside for something to be threaded into each bore.

That's a great id! My grandfather had a gorgeous old Indian water pump backpack.

Very cool find and great ID. This summer, I found the lid to a metal Indian tank. I thought I had the gas cap to a motorcycle, lol. I never knew about the mobile fire fighter's tank until I found that cap. I love the aspect of forcing us to learn about new things because of our research into our finds.

I knew that looked familiar. I remember fighting brush fires back in the 70's with one of those "indian tanks" strapped to my back. One guy would spray the water and another armed with a wet broom would sweep the flames out ! That was a lot of work !
