Need help identifying an old gun

[jml818]

Been digging around old pile of rocks surrounded by lots disheveled stone walls. As seen in picture been finding some old crusty things but have never found a gun part. Its heavy iron and would love to know more about it, if somebody here knows. Not much to go on i know.

I'm not seeing a gun.
Some old stuff though!

I don't see any gun parts, but I do see a Civil War knapsack J hook.

D.

Yeah, I don’t see any gun part either

I think he's referring to the iron object...looks like a barrel to me!

I have no idea on the gun but I would be dropping that in some Apple Cider Vinegar for a couple months to get rid of the rust. May even bring out more details under the corrosion. Looks like you have a hotspot there with all the buttons and relics!

That piece, when enlarged, looks flat and solid... not seeing the gun barrel.

the more I look at that large rusty piece the more it looks like a pittman arm end from a sickle bar mower.

Not a barrel or any gun part-looks like possibly some sort handle.
