My Dad found this in the bottom of a vase while cleaning out my Grandmother's house.

It's marked "Defender" on the topstrap, looks to be a rimfire, and my Dad *thinks* it's .32 Cal.

I haven't handled it, or seen it in person, but, assuming he's pretty close with his guesses....any idea what this is????
