Know for a fact it's autentic, but the papers have been lost. Bought at an auction in the 60s.
I've heard it's of Turkish origin and from the 1700s.

Whole rifle

Bump, you're terrible at identifying weapons /k/
>>
>>28380141
Any markings whatsoever on it?

I mean, it is fancy enough to be turkish, but that stock really isn't jezail-ly
>>
Looks like a FAMAS
>>
When you say papers.
You mean the owners manual?
Right.
>>
>No idea what Rifle you're looking at.
>I KNOW ITS AUTHENTIC.

You can have one or the other man, can't have both.
>>
>>28380638
You keep talking shit like you didn't think I could hear you bitch.
>>
>>28380141
I'm not a jezail expert.
>bought it at an auction in the 60's
What are you doing on 4chan gramps.

It's a good thing you're posting a lot of close up pictures containing any sort of markings that may be on the gun, otherwise nobody would be able to be of much help.

There is a specific name for these,
But it originated in a India/Pakistan/Afghanistan area.
Would be the weapon of choice for operators on camels

It's a Turkish Musket, if I do say so.
>>
>>28380141
yeah, it's a pretty utilitarian camel gun, you want to know who made it? that's about the era and general region, you're not going to find a model number or a woodblock of an ottoman carrying that specific one.

I don't know what it is, but believe me when I tell you that's what it is!
>>
>>28380150

Why did they make the barrels so long? Were they just hoping to counter the inaccuracy of a smoothbore musket by giving it a fuckload of velocity? Or were they hoping to penetrate tanks with that fucker?
>>
Jezail

>>28381048
1. Put a bayonet on the end and you've got a nice spear.
2. Shit powder takes longer to burn properly
>>
I saw a gun like that on American Pickers, you should be able to trade it for some old coca cola signs and some sinclair brand oil cans :^)
>>
It could be a Matchlock Jezail

Anon for fucks sake tell me you have a golden half-moon engraved in the top,or a half moon with a red star.
>>
>>28383088
Got it from grandpa, he bought it in the 60s, but any information on it went in the grave with him.

>>28381061
Thanks

>>28381048
Probably in order to take down horses

>>28381033
They're all worn off at this point.

>>28381000
Captain obvious

>>28380977
Sorry m8, the pics were taken during new years dinner while discussing it's possible origin with family.

>>28380970
Got it from him

>>28380969
Well fuck you too
- /int/

>>28380945
Granddad told me it was autentic, but he lost the papers. I could probably find some records from the auction, but I'm too lazy to do so.

>>28380931
>Owners manual
Yes, I meant the owners manual, it was even printed in English.

>>28380804
Nah, no markings.
