Question Old musket barrel for ID

Dear all,

Is it possible to define origins of this musket barrel based of the shape of the muzzle ?

Regards,

Evgeny

This barrel was excavated here in Russia so I'm not sure that it's Indian.

Now Evgeny shows us some more part of it; why not in the first place ?
If it has a percussion chimney, would not be (flintlock) Miquelete.
Let us see more pictures, in different angles; will you Evgeny ?

Sure, but not today. I'll try to make a better pics in two days.
As for percussion chimney, I think it could be a late alteration.

Just for comparison, this wound barrel specimen was sold yesterday att the Bonhams auction house.
Interesting to see how these damascus barrels where made.
