What is this - MG34?

Ok, so I have a new TNW MG34. I had it sitting next to me at my computer desk. I move it around and notice a small screw on the floor. Don't know if it joggled loose from the MG34 or if it is an errant part from a child's toy. So, for your viewing pleasure, can you tell me if this is off an MG34:

I honestly cannot remember seeing one of those on any of the TNW MG34's I have tuned. Harry

I'd guess it came out of the chair at your desk.

That's a pretty unusual head on the screw, and it would certainly take a special socket to fit it. I'm not familiar with TNW, but it certainly doesn't look like anything I've seen on any German gun.

Changed the light bulb in your ceiling fixture lately?

Yeah, it looks like a screw from the glass on a light fixture.

Thanks gents, seems the consensus is it isn't from my '34. Probably off y chair, a light fixture or one of my kids' toys.
