Matchlocks made in India.

[Darto]

Indian guns are not considered good quality. I have an Indian flint pistol, fires every time.

My first gun ever was a matchlock (after seeing Held's book Age of Firearms on the Stackpole rack in the local sporting goods store). Not too practical, mostly a mechanism for doing something different!

In Held's book when the old woodcuts show armed soldiers firing from on top the castle wall, they were doing like this only with matchlocks instead of modern flintlocks.
