What is it? Set 503

2933 Could be the back side of an opsiometer.

I still have one from my TSD Rallying days back in the 1960s.

You're correct about it being on an old military base, it's actually a park now, this is on the same land as the Voice of America switch matrix from last week. If you look at the last photo of the matrix you can see some of the boxes on the right.

I don't think anyone identified the fourth item, but the rest of this set were all properly answered:

2933 is a "capper". It holds percussion caps for a cap and ball weapon. It holds a number of percussion caps in a spring loaded "magazine" and makes it easy to place the cap on the nipple. see

Go to any County Fair or theme park and order a Churro. Then go look at the ovens they come out of...

It's weird, things like that you should be able to "pick up anywhere" but I've never seen a catalog where they list things like that. You used to get the various twist and link chains and sprockets with Erector Sets and would be useful for many Rube Goldberg-ing projects.
