What troubles me when looking at your pistol, is that it does not bear the carasteristtics of a cominazzo pistol. The barrel is not typical (see picture) and also the decorations seem a bit unorthodox.
The name Cominazzo is also spelled wrong with appears to be a K?

I fear this is a period fraud example, like many others i have enountered. Hopefully i am wrong.
