Is this the same musket that was discussed elsewhere several years ago?
The suggestion was that it is a Mass. State Militia musket patterned after US M1798/1808/1812 muskets.

That is possible as I have only owned this musket for a short time

I think that it is highly probable that this is the same musket.
Given the absence of Federal markings, State Militia makes sense.
