Nice guns!

I've always assumed these came from the arabian peninsula, so I'd say Yemen rather than India, but more than that I don't know. You can see mine in the post below this on about the Indian battlement gun.

I for one will be watching this thread in the hope that some of the more knowledgable folk will be able to help

Generaly guns with the padded butt are Arabian, Indian stocks tend to be narrow and of a pentagonal section. Afghan / Sind tend to be the deeply curved hooked style. Personaly I know of no exceptions, though that does not mean there are non.
