Dear Anyonomis,
Thank you for your help and patience.
The presented object appears to be a brass barrel flintlock system gun. It has an octagonal barrel and the lock is engraved with military motifs like a drum. Such guns were common around 1750 to 1770. It has no proof stamps which speaks against a localization in Great Britain or Belgium.
This piece is in medium condition and there is a part of the wooden pistol grip broken.
A fair market estimation would be between 150 to 400 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
Georg

There are no additional markings. I sent everything there is on this firearm.
Is there something or a place in particular you need to see.
