Mau Mau Rebellion?

[Triple Jack]

Hi,
In my first post about the Jerzail Matchlock (incorrectly identified/named by me) I mentioned a couple of rifles. This one was gifted by the antique shop owner as part of the purchase. It was stated that there may have been a connection to the Mau Mau rebellion. To me this musket looks homemade and I have no idea if it was ever functional. I googled the rebellion and found out that many weapons where improvised. Could this be one of them?

To be honest I did not know what “Ethnographic” meant until I looked it up. I believe that this musket could fit into this category. If not please delete this post. I hope that you find the photographs interesting.

Cheers Jack
