Hard to even guess without knowing size, but I wonder if it's a protective cap for a rod tip.

It looks like a muzzle protector for a rifle.

That makes the most sense. It’s important to keep dirt, etc. out of a rifle muzzle, and the bump out would fit over the barrel sight.Eric J wrote:It looks like a muzzle protector for a rifle.

Interesting that its stated purpose was to protect the “sight” and not the muzzle opening.

I once had a sight knocked off when as a kid I was on the back of a Cushman motor scooter. Note I said as a kid. I hope as an adult I would have better sense.
