Yes, beautiful damascus barrel, just a very nice gun overall. As for the age, I gave my guess based on what I know, though I am most certainly not an expert. Ottoman matchlocks are not common, as as a result collectors are not as familiar with them as with miquelet lock guns. This is why others may not have responded yet.
