Piece of a musket or flintlock pistol?

Found this by an apple tree, the area was farmland all the way back to 1870. It is non-magnetic, grayish and rough. There are two holes in it.

being non-magnetic its probably the hammer from a zinc die-cast toy gun.

Looks like a dog for an adjustment on a farm implement the big hole would be the pivot point and the small hole would be where a spring would attach

If it's not magnetic, then it cannot be from an actual firearm as they are iron or steel. It could be off a toy gun, they are cast pot metal, or white metal. a farm implimrnt could be possible as state d above.
