Any Ideas? Heavy Metal Mouthpiece Fits a WE

Any Ideas? Heavy Metal Mouthpiece Fits a WE. Its heavy and looks like it was nickel-ed but a lot of brass shows, especially on the inside. Kind of dented around rim. Holes seem strange. Home brew?? Worth re-nickeling??,,,Doug

That is very interesting. 
I never seen one like that.
I see the holes are are not even, it is like someone drilled then by hand....
Could it have been cast?

I have a 1952 Signal Corps 500 that had a replaced fingerwheel. It was made of aluminum, and it was home made. It's pretty interesting looking, definitely not factory, but not really badly done either.

It kind of reminds me of this mouthpiece; has jagged edges and definitely wasn't factory, but fits well and looks like it could have been original.
