Part of a musket?

[Scottdavid]

What do you think? Part of a flint lock mechanism? Found on beach of a fort

Also don’t know if this is just a common lead sinker related to fishing

the piece with the screw is likely part of a broken electrical switch or relay, definitely not a musket part. no idea on the round one

I'm thinking the round one might be an old Zinc plate off a boat hull or motor . These sacrificial anodes protect all below the waterline (hull) contained metal parts from corrosion. These zinc anodes in round shape are in double piece for mounting ...

 

[Scottdavid]

Interesting . . . How or where would these zinc anodes sit?

 

[Scottdavid]

I’m pretty sure it’s lead and not zinc tho

I’m not sure what they are, but unfortunately they have nothing to do with a flintlock. Sorry.

the part with the screw looks like a carburetor linkage to me

Nothing I see in the images looks firearm related. Flintlock or otherwise.
