Right I'm doing my dads garden because he is on holiday, I was digging a patch of dirt and I hit something hard pulled it out and it was a gun really crusty could not really see anything except the handle which also had rotted because it is wood, on top of the gun there is a separate barrel kind of thing then there is a big barrel bellow it, it weighs quite a bit that's what made me think is this a real gun. I will try and get some pictures up later, was thinking about cleaning it up or even selling it to someone who deals with this sort of thing.

You should have left it and let it grow into a gun tree....

.... or is that gum tree?????
