Another Ottoman Pistol

Hi Rick,
My god, another beauty!
The lock, the barrel and the brass nails, it's so beautiful, a very nice gun and as you said in very good condition. About the brass nails, you have some green inlays inside? Are they made of tainted bone or walrus ivory? Like on the bosnian knifes or some Central Asian kindjal? Frankly I don't know if your gun is from the Balkans or Turkish, too good to be true!
Best,
Kubur
