I have seen this recently. Do you think is a legitimate turkish matchlock musket? It seems there is an alteration in the stock and a wood filling in the place that was housing a mechanism.

I'm no expert but it looks a little like Indian to me. Hopefully Rick will come in on this.

I would say Indian as well, and quite a nice one. Turkish stocks tend to be heavier and more pentagonal.
