Arrived today. I'm happy
The best gun in my collecton.
Profusely decorated stock, ball pommel, Scandella lock.
Scandella was a gunsmith active in Florence 1725-1740, according to Gaibi.
The ball pommel is somehow typical for the Caucasus region, but the decoration seems to me more ottoman-balkan.
What do you think?
Is it more likely that scandella produced locks fo export or that it was remounted from an older gun?
