Default MIQUELET ESCOPETA BACCARI LOCK need ID

Who could help me with this MIQUELET ESCOPETA with a lock signed BACCARI.
I would like to know more about BACCARI and this hunting gun
It look like the last spanish miquelet gun I already post but this name is more from Italy I think.
Any comment on it are welcome.

Best regards

Cerjak

Baccari is an Italian name indeed.
However the style in which it is engraved doesn't necessarly make it be the gun or lock maker, in my humble opinion

Hola, Cerjak:

La llave(lock) de miguelete es llamada también llave mediterranea, porque todos los países bañados por el Mediterraneo la han producido, con mas o menos variantes. Así, la llave (lock) de esta escopeta presenta algunas caracteristicas de la llave "a la romana" (la colocación del resorte del rastrillo (frizen). Asimismo, la forma de la culata es llamada "a la madrileña".
En cuanto al nombre Baccari, me parece es el del constructor de la llave (lock).

Afectuosamente. Fernando K

Hello, Cerjak:

The Key (lock) Miguelete is also called Mediterranean key because all the countries bordering the Mediterranean have produced, with more or less variations. Thus, the key (lock) of this shotgun has some key features of "the Roman" (spring placement rake (frize). Furthermore, the shape of the head is called "a la Madrileña".
As for the name Baccari, I think is the builder of the key (lock).

Affectionately. Fernando K
