I have been given an old musket as a wall hanger. It appears it was made in somewhere like India or Nepal.
It would be interesting to know where.

As I noted earlier - it looks like Siamese, having seen similar inscriptions of similar firearms in the past. Take to to your local Siamese/Thai restaurant - or rather, an image. I'm sure they can help you out.

It IS Nepali - you were right!!
It was also written by a very poor hand in Devanagari dialect - it reads, and it IS the right way up - La.Ta. 9735.
There is no charge for this.

I tried looking at the Nepalese alphabet and numbering. I could not figure out the letters but I got close to the number. I got it to 1735, so I have obviously not perfected my Nepalese yet.
At a guess it appears to be a makers initials and and a serial number. I doubt that I will be able to find anything out about it. At least I know where the gun originated from.
Thanks again.
