Almost cylindrical, iron barrel, slightly tapered towards the nozzle which is provided with moulded muzzle, a reinforcing ring at the centre. Breech with a larger diameter than the barrel, it is open to insert a chamber piece with its catch into the two side slots. The breech cracked on one side. In antique patina. See a model with a similar structure (but with an octagonal barrel) in 'Museo Poldi Pezzoli - Armeria II' (Electa, Milan, 1986), no. 916 with photos 1196-1198. The book documents also other samples kept both in Italian and foreign museums.
