I have a very old matchlock muzzle loader, possibly Japanese. the barrel is 37 inches and goes from octogon to round. Smooth bore, pistol grip. I cant find any markings and seems to be crudly made. the overall length is 40 1/2", the forearm is full length. Any ideas of what this could be or how old or value??
