Cerjak,
Sorry I cannot help you more. Attached is a photo of a page from a Turkish book on firearms, which shows a European style musket with supposedly an Ottoman lock. Not the same as yours, but there are some similarities. Unfortunately, I do not understand any Turkish and so I really do not know what the description says. Also, keep in mind that Turkish museum workers have a tendencay tod escribe everything as Ottoman, from Arab tribal matchlocks to Winchesters used in the Russo-Turkish war of 1877-78.
Regards,
Teodor
