Its a cap gun but had me fooled for a second.

I did a little woods swinging today and came across this Hubley Remington .36 a couple inches down. It is a vintage toy cap gun thats made very well. Im not sure of the exact age but im thinking about the 60s? If anyone knows please let me know.

Also dug an almost fully intact harmonica. Other than those two items the rest was junk brass pieces and some lead pipe pieces. 40 degree january detecting I cant complain too much.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. They get dropped and left behind a lot it seems. They must have only cost like a nickel or something brand new. Last year was my first year detecting and it was only a partial year. I found quite a few pieces of harmonica reeds and one other complete harmonica. Then i have todays find.
 

Nice find hope you get some id ,find harmonica part up north too.It,s kind of gone now nobody use it.
