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 |

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. |
