Looks like trigger mechanism to me.

Could be wrong but looks like part of a hammer mechanism from a firearm. Pretty neat find!

what you got there, is a powder flask mechanism.

Colorado - I think you're on the right track. Gate to a powder or shot flask. But it would help to have some indication of the size.

That is it!
It is only an 1"x 1" fits the photos added By Charlie, Thanks.

Yes, almost sure it goes to the powder flask. Charlie got it. I have to go back and see if I can find the rest of it!
Thanks,
