Hi Cerjak and Dom,
I will try to resist a little to make the discussion more funny. This style of the gunstock including the shaping for finger was common in Sahara a and till now I was of the opinion it was used generally there, but also mainly preferred by Tuaregs (see other types of north African gunstocks used parallelly). On the other side - the true is the Tuaregs used another adornment, mostly made of camel bones and studs.
I think this kind of lock was used in north Africa from and including Tripolitania to the west, and also parallelly with other types. But let the experts for musket join this thread
