Afghan Jezail I just picked up in Afghanistan

The lock is labeled Henshaw and is dated 1799. I believe the stock probably is new. I slid the barrel bands down and lifted the barrel and looked at the side of the barrel and the demascas is much more defined where it was protected. I am trying to post more pics but I have to figure out how to reduce the res on the photos so they can be posted. I dont have the barrel length as I am still in afghanistan and sent the rifle home before it got damaged or they change thier mind about letting us send antique weapons home. I appreciate all the info.
