Hi Kubur!!
I've been out of town on business, and leaving again tomorrow.

I've seen a few of these Torador barrels decorated, but nothing quite like this. WOW !!! What a beautiful barrel !!!!
The "general" style of the stock, lock, and barrel look very similar to mine. So it would not surprise me if this gun was made in the same provincal area as mine.
The barrel on yours exibits a large amount of chisel work. Can you imagine how long it would take to do this?? You just never know what you will find under dirt and rust. LOL

Beautiful gun!!!
Rick.
