Don't know if it's related to the Civil War but the bottom pic could be a lock spring from an old muzzle loader. Monty

Thanks Monty, We were not sure about that one, Trk5capt thought it might be some type of leaf spring from a wagon or a carraige. Maybe someone will figure it out, HH Art...

Got a question on the recurved piece in the center of 2nd picture. Is it iron, is it magnetic? If so, I think it is a fire striker from a flint and steel fire starting kit. The shape is typical from that period.

Just my 2 cents worth.

You already have the good luck, so I will say happy hunting. Good finds.

Art, lets face the facts, buddy, some of the stuff we find are just plain JUNK. IT may be old junk but it is still just JUNK. See you next week end if the wives approve. trk5capt...

I reenact the Civil war and know a great deal about it.To me everything you have there looks like knapsack buckles and clips,may be wrong but im pretty sure.
