Is this part of a Depth Charge Pistol?

I bought this as a depth charge fuze? Now I think it is part of a Pistol?

It is marked:

MARK 1 F. A (arrow) N K in a circle. So it is Australian.
Made from brass and Bakelite.
Top unscrews to expose a detonator tube. Bits obviously missing.

Base is 54mm. Centre is 38mm. Length is 126mm overall.
I have little knowledge on this item . How is it used? Thanks. Ron.

That makes two similar items so hopefully someone will identify them for us.
Mine is the same inside, I forgot to unscrew it for a photo. Where are the experts? Thanks for the reply.
