Default Gun barrel proof/armoury stamps.

Hi Guys,
This gun barrel is from an Albanian/Greek Rasak rifle made in the first part of the 19th Cent, see post Rasak Restoration on the Ethnographic Forum.
I'm thinking that the barrel may be from an earlier piece decorated and recycled to make the Rasak. The stamps suggest to me a possible European, in its widest sense, origin for the barrel. Any ideas welcomed.
Regards,
Norman.
