Hi Osobist

That is a nice looking Tanchika/Arnautka. And typical of the style.

I agree with Stu and Kubur. Elgood and Tirri seem to use both terms interchangably to refer to the same gun. Possibly, the different terms could be used depending on where one is standing at the moment in Albania.

Kubur: OK, Arnauts. I did not know that. Thanks.

Interesting to note that while the decoration could vary, the general design/build of these muskets are almost identical.
