Hi, 
I received this gun as a present. Although this is a replica, I would like to know the history of the actual gun (if it actually existed). Please can somebody help me?

Regards

Looks to me to be in the style of a mid to late seventeenth century Italian triple barrelled flintlock pistol. Though maybe someone with a little more knowledge knows better. 
What a handsome figure of a dragon. No wonder I fall madly in love with the Alani Dragon now, the avatar, it's a gorgeous dragon picture.
