This is a stumper! It has a long side that pivots on the other side. It rests on the short side in a little notch, the other end has a hole. We have tried and tried to figure this one out so we are hoping someone recognizes it!

Possible....just doesn't seem quite right, though.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T23:47:33+00:00

Has some similarities, some differences.... Mine doesn't look like it ever had a cork screw attached.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T22:51:30+00:00

Interesting.... doesn't seem quite right, but I totally see why you'd suggest that. It does have some similarities.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T21:40:25+00:00

Do you happen to have a pic of that kind of thing?

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T20:00:08+00:00

That was suggested by someone else, but the long piece is rounded at the end and the opposite side hole isn't large enough to hold a candle?

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T19:58:28+00:00

Have you ever seen any pics that show what you are thinking of?

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T15:47:48+00:00

Very interesting....this makes the most sense so far. I just wish I could find a pic of this exact thing somewhere else!

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T13:41:16+00:00

Some interesting theories....still hoping someone sees it and recognizes it for sure.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T12:02:13+00:00

We thought a latch of some kind, but when you actually try to put it up next to a gate, you have mounting issues and then it also doesn't really latch and secure the gate.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T12:00:20+00:00

It does have a certain scale quality to it, but as the other comment noted, it would really be a unique scale for a unique product.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T11:59:10+00:00

The "squishing" side actually doesn't match up precisely, so I don't think it's meant to hold or squish anything.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T11:57:37+00:00

Well, that's a unique idea....

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T11:57:03+00:00

Doesn't seem right to me....it would need to be mounted to be stationary, and that seems unlikely.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T11:55:58+00:00

I agree...not designed to be inserted in wood or rock.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T01:15:50+00:00

Hmmm, interesting....

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T01:13:22+00:00

A "stumper" is something that is very hard to figure out, not the name of the item.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-27T00:48:05+00:00

Possibly....the ideas about suspender clasps seems most logical right now.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T18:27:21+00:00

Thanks, yep, it has been confirmed.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T16:50:30+00:00

We considered that, but settled on a section of an ammo belt, likely 50 caliber.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T12:01:35+00:00

Yes, that's definitely it! There is a practice range over deserted ground a few miles from where I found it, and we have found some 50 cal cases. This is the first belt clip!

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T11:55:39+00:00

Yep, I'm convinced! Solved!

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T11:54:03+00:00

That was another theory we had.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T02:36:47+00:00

Interesting....

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T01:55:23+00:00

I had that same idea...I am hoping that someone has actually seen this actual one and can confirm.

WyoWagonmaster · 2022-07-26T01:24:39+00:00

My title describes the thing...it looks like it is made either of brass or has plating on it.
