old gun trigger?

[thrillathahunt]

I found this at the old cowboy camp. It's about 1 3/4 in. long...heavily rusted. Any help in ID'ing would be appreciated.

sorry about the picture situation... hopefully I have solved the problem.

I'd say that it's most likely the hammer from a revolver - not the actual trigger.

some sort of mechanical part, I don't believe it is to a gun though. Definitely not a trigger or hammer.

im thinking: part of a clock works or lock innards

Re: old gun hammer? BETTER PIC

1 3/4" long by 3/4" wide and 3/8" thick...........11 grams. What do you think?

Maybe a "stop" for a small winch similar to those found on boat trailers?? The end would go in between the gear teeth to hold the winch in a chosen position.

Don't appear to be a hammer to me and I've seen a few. Monty
