Do you have any ideas about the specific area of the Balkans that this musket originated?

Oh yes
100 % Tunisian / North African
look in our forum with these key words
plus the lock looks very Spanish or Portuguese to me

Just to add something the butt is very Ottoman and i'll place your gun in the 18th c. not the 19th c.
Tunisian as i said and you have something similar in Tirri's book...
