This unusual weapon consisted of a large single shot pistol that had a detachable shoulder stock which theoretically transformed it into a carbine. Here are two excavated brass parts from the pistol and stock.

One piece is the rounded brass butt cap from the pistol. It has a hole in the bottom where a lanyard ring would have been and a smaller screw hole at the back strap.  Also visible just above this screw hole is a small sub-inspector’s stamp, “8”.

The second piece is one of the brass ends of the shoulder stock. This is the mechanical part that attached into the back strap of the pistol.  Many of the smaller iron components remain.

Both brass pieces feature a perfect “dug” green patina.  [jet][ph:L]
