    Matchlock Pistols did they exist?

    Finding some with burst barrels makes it sound like they were meant to be fired if they could be fired. At the very least toys tend to mimic something real. I would like to see the dimensions.

    Matchlock Pistols did they exist?

    Thanks for posting these matchlocks. This very crude cast matchlock with a simple external mechanism is particularly interesting since the Tower claims that many have been found. Possibly the first "Saturday night special."

    Squire Robin - Can you post pictures of this matchlock shield gun? I am very curious now.

    Matchlock Pistols did they exist?

    This older thread might have some useful information: http://www.muzzleloadingforum.com/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/290560/fromsearch/1/tp/1/ In general, it seems that a lot more Indian and Japanese matchlock pistols have survived than European matchlock pistols.

    I can almost hear Grant "yelling" at them over his almost being BBQed. He was so painfully nice it probably took the culprits 2 weeks to realize that he wasn't complimenting their fire building skills. It took me that long to figure out that he had actually been complaining about me browning...

    German backpacks

    Germans have used a willow "backpack basket", sometimes called a Tun,- for centuries. There are some eccentric off-the-gridders here who still use them for shopping when they hike into town. http://woodsrunnersdiary.blogspot.com/2014/10/pack-baskets.html

    Colonial Style Brazier

    I own one of these and have had good luck with it. More importantly my lovely wife likes it. A skillet or Dutch oven will sit nicely on the top tabs.

    Kings Mountain

    Native Arizonian - the book is excellent for genealogy. It seemed that about 1/2 our unit had grandcestors who fought at Kings Mountain. "Col." Grant Hardin was our actual unit commander at the time. I seem to recall that he was a Baptist preacher. Very nice fellow whose reputation get us...

    Hand Mortars

    I sort of like the looks of that 17th(?) century hand mortar. I cannot see the lock but I am guessing that it is a wheellock like: It looks like it could be a matchlock (which I a little more interested in right now) similar to this one:

    I am the person who needed that warning even though I own a ground version of this little grenade launcher. I should know better after watching it grasshopper around from recoil.
