Third photo appears to be a piece of a lead wheel weight for balancing a mounted tire so that it will wear evenly.

Gun hammer: looks like a gun hammer but doesn't have a sharp pin forged on the striking surface that would strike the primer and set a cartridge off. Might work on a gun that has a separate spring-loaded pin that the hammer hits and drives into the primer.
