Upgraed or modernised handgonnes
Stadtmuseum Wangen im Allgäu, Bavaria, Germany keeps a curios object. The piece is described as Pertinal-Brustkarabiner (breast carbine) with a barrel dating to the late 15th century, the shaft and a French Batterieschloß (flint lock) with double set trigger were added around 1730.
