Hello

Two comments on what has sustained Ricky. The Spanish muskets, during the 18th century, followed the fashion of the lock to the French, in this case with some Spanish characteristics, the large ring on the screw that adjusts the jaws and striatum rake (Frizen) and recently in 1790 appears the lock of miquelete, although civilian weapons has been used long before. Remarkable is the absence of bridle into the bowl (pan)
Also, service weapon is owned by the Spanish crown, owned by the punch, REI. You can not be a French weapon.

It has not said anything about the method of carrying, the rings of gun carrier

Affectionately. Fernando K

Sorry for the translator
