Pic number 3 looks like lever action on a rifle, hole for safety lock but I don't know for sure. Maybe more modern kids toy 50's-60's?

Re: Request identifications from Salerno's battlefield

The second item looks familiar. Can you post another pic different angle? Is it hollow?

Re: Request identifications from Salerno's battlefield

Could the second item be some kind of muzzle protector/cover?

I have seen that side lever thingy somewhere before. Something to do with a gun was also my thoughts.

Thanks to everyone for informations. The second object is a cap of a flask for fire powder for ancient rifles.

No idea about black bakelite fragment? Appear to read ..GND.. If came from german\english trench of WWII.

Re: Request identifications from Salerno's battlefield

No idea on the bakelite fragment. Maybe from radio equipment. GND stands for Ground.

Example: Signal Corps WWI trench transmitter
"The large terminals on the left marked ANT and GND and are for attaching the antenna and ground to the set."

Bakelite was used in both wars on radio and signalling equipment.

Thanks but GND appear to be like a mark of some factory......??
