Thank you Michl, words like these inspire me to dig even further into the quit complicated matter of early firearms.
And no worries, i was already doubtfull of the authenticity of the colourfull haquebuts. When comparing the red minium of your fine stangenbüsche (i hope i spelled it correctly
) with that of the Wiener Waffenkammer i became sceptic and a bit sad about the haquebuts. Still they are haquebuts and the form (contours) are still pretty much original
