Hola Cerjak;

Tengo entendido que los armeros de Cerdeña no podían producir cañones (barrel) ni llaves (lock), y por eso debían introducirlas desde Brescia. Los cañones (barrel) eran largos, hasta de 1,40 metros y el calibre chico, de unos 12 milimetros. Los armeros locales producían la caja (stock) y las fornituras.

Dudo que los armeros árabes hubieran reproducido fielmente esta arma.
Es todo lo que puedo decirte.

Afectuosamente. Fernando K

Hello Cerjak;

I have understood that the gun smiths in Sardinia could not produce gun barrels or locks, and therefore these should be introduced from Brescia. The barrels were long, up to 1.40 meters and the calibers of about 12 millimeters. The local gunsmiths produced the stocks and trimmings.

I doubt that the Arab gunsmiths have faithfully reproduced this weapon.
It's all I can say.

Affectionately. Fernando K

Fernando K: Hi Fernando!! Thanks for posting. That's more than I knew about this gun. Thanks, Rick.
