Miquelet-Pistol of the Osmanic Empire

Just as a comparison, here is one that I own. Made very similar to Corrado's.
This one has the plain trigger you see on most Albanian pistols. And you can just make out the Albanian bird crest on the breech of the barrel. So, It's likely this one was made for an Albanian customer.

Now that I think about it, mine is due for another cleaning. Seems I have to do this once a year. LOL But it's rather easy to do. The silver stock does tarnish.
