I would like some feedback on this odd, probably early musket. I'm assuming it is Spanish. Has a nice early superimposed Spanish Miquelet lock. Early style serpent trade gun sideplate. Early style trigger guard. Spanish style stock with the curved down butt similar to the Escopeda. Damascus barrel with silver overlay in the Ottoman style? Was this a captured piece or did the Spanish make barrels in the same way? I'm thinking this is second half of the 17th century. At least parts are. I'm wondering what you all think about it though. It's stuck in England because overseas shipping has become fun due to the Ukraine war so if i find out nothing but the lock is old I will ask my friend who is keeping it for me to send me the lock and sell the parts. The orange background are the auction photos. The others my friend sent me. I can ask for others if needed.
