hi Ric,

The image size is larger on my blog so the enlargement is a bit clearer, hope it helps... Hope to get a good digital camera soon to take large file size images coupled with a quality lens. Being able to share very clear images that you can study in detail would made out hobby/passion that much better.

Lovely barrel, Rand.

Lovely gun altogether! Thank you for sharing the pictures with us.
How long is the barrel?

Richard.

Barrel is about 34" from tip to rear of sight... Any opinions as to age of this firearm?

Many many thanks Rand. 18thc? That is why I love Ottoman stuff - so much artwork and craftsmanship.
