Hey all - went out this morning with my brothers and our buddy despite the rain and pulled more cool relics from the site we've been hitting the last six months.

Today we got a real mind blower - what we believe to be a gun barrel or some other sort of weapon barrel. Looks like there is a spot for a fuse or flint spark. Postes in what is it.

Also what looks like a small version of a classic civ war bullet and a copper spoon.


thanks for looking. can't wait to get back to the site tomorrow.

I think you have a small pistol barrel. The protrusion on the right is the "tang" that inlets into the stock/grip. Is that bump on the other end a sight?

I think its definetly a sight. If you look in what is it i have more pictures of it. Not to be silly - but I honestly think its a "pirate gun" now. That was my gut instinct when it came out and now I have searched pirate gun in google and see similar looking barrels but without the rest of the gun of course.

thanks
