    Recently herited 2 short & 2 long muskets, help !

    Thank you for for your insight. I have no idea about these and I would have thought these are all real. According to my mother, grandpa collected these after his retirement between 1960-1970 when he traveled a lot. Could anyone help me identify this one ?

    Thank you for these. I took more photos of the pistols. So far I have only recognized the easy Danish M-1848.

    Any idea of the origin ? Are these Balkan, Russia, spanish, U.S. or asian style ? I believe this thin one is from Balkan Tanchika style flintlock rifle ? And the other one of the short pistols seem to have some sort of rat tail handle ?
