Early toy gun...Any ideas???

[bassmstr]

Well here is more pics from my cellar hole finds. Added onto my other post but afraid people stop reading once they get too long.

Anyways found this and it seems to be a early toy gun. Was in two seperate parts but connects with center rod. There is a plunger inside the barrel. Maybe a pop gun of some sorts.
Possibly You had to pull the handle to bring plunger in to load and push forward to make it pop

Tried researching but no luck so far.

Looks like an old cork gun.
You put a cork in the barrel and pull it
backwards, the air from the "rod" shoots
the cork out.

I dont know what it is but there should be some writing on it somewhere. If you can find that and research it you would probably know what it is. Good luck and sweet find no matter what!! Its really cool looking. HH Tom

It looks like a belt worn loading tool for an old flint lock pistol.

pull rod back --- insert cork in end --push rod forward --- compressed air pressure "pops" out the cork --"-pop gun" or "cork gun" they were called --- looks like an old one to me.
