Iron Unknown (Indian War Era)

[Montana Jim]

Like all my other unkowns, this is an Indian War era (or as late as the 20s-30s given the site) iron object that seems to be a piece or part from a toy gun, or... I don't know? Seems like part or half of a trigger-housing of some kind to me... but please look at it with fresh eyes!

I've been wondering about this piece for nearly a year. I am will take other pics if you think it may help.

could be a toy rifle...

Michelle... yea... or maybe an actual rifle? I'm hoping that one of these period weapons experts can confirm one way or another that is or is not from a weapon. I know I dig bullets and shells from tons of different weapons at this site, mostly 45-70.

Past that... Heck, who knows what it might be.

I'm updating a picture... more looks broken than I originally pointed out.

I think you have the mechanism from a toy cap rifle early 30' to 50's. that part would be in the base of the rifle near the trigger. Just a guess.

I think your mostly right dg39.

I don't expect a lot of replies on this one!
