Anyone Recognize This?

Hi,
I am trying to ID this model part. I have no idea what it could be, it
doesn't look like anything I've ever come across. Please take a look

How about a whip antennae that is mounted on the side of a ship's island?

I'm thinking that this is a part that holds an aileron or stabilizor on a wing or tail of an airplane. I've seen something like this before but can't place it exactly. The part exists as is, then the wing/tail surface is slid over and down the shaft, so it can be moved back and fourth. But maybe not. :-)

It looks like a hinge pin. Too thick to be an antenna (well ,for most antennas we see), and not a gun barrel because there's no breech. It's kinda long to be a hinge pin, however, unless the thin end goes into a cup to give it rigidity.

It looks like a recoil piston assembly for some sort of artillery piece. Is it curved on one side of the mount end? Looks like it should go over the top of a cylinder.
