Default Multibarrel matchlock

Hi all - I would welcome opinions regarding this intriguing little gun I recently purchased from this ad: https://www.gunsinternational.com/gu...n_id=103305447

The tri-barrels are approximately 12.6mm caliber; the buttstock barrels approximately 7.5mm. Overall length 81 cm, weight 3.964kg.

Lovely. The tri barrles look like they had pan covers. Are there any on the butt barrels? Which I assume were touch fired.

There are provisions for pan covers but all those are also absent - agree the buttstock barrels would require individual touch ignition.
