Hello Forum,

I found a couple of unique items. I’m not sure what the cylindrical thing is. Does anyone recognize this? At first I thought it was a garden hose nozzle. Now I’m thinking gun part? Maybe it’s a trumpet mouth piece.

Thanks for looking.

I don't know about gun part. It looks more like a trumpet mouthpiece or sextant eyepiece, though not an exact match to either one that I can find.

Looks like it might fit inside another piece and be, at least somewhat permanently, attached.

I think you were correct with the hose nozzle guess, if so it missing the hose attachment end and the internal bit that control the water flow/pattern, all of this would of attached using the 2 holes in some fashion.
Here a complete one that is almost but not quite an exact match.

Thanks everyone. That does look close. Mine does not have any internal threads. Mine also appears to be flared wider at the end too. Not sure.

Well done !

Maybe it came apart. Maybe this is simply part of it.

IMO , this is what your item (likely ) is .

 

[oldmxrat]

Definitely part of a hose nozzle, and an old one, very cool!

You did great

Nice finds, I don't believe it's a Trumpet mouthpiece. My guess is part of a hose nozzle that is missing a piece.

Cool riker cap. They made some nice bottles too. I have a milk glass jar with most of paper label for Riker's violet cerate. Don't think your cap went to the one I dug though as mine would have had a milk glass lid.

Hello RatherBeDigging, Its not a cap. It appears to be a container. Maybe a sample container. Like a mini compact. I was hoping that there was a coin, or a ring inside. It comes apart in two pieces.
