Show us your Powder flask

A couple more pics of the Turkish belt buckle.

Woaw, Omani powder flask, Ottoman belts...Just so beautiful
I add
One Ottoman powder flask with a stamp
Probably for the silver parts (please see the thread about algerian bishaq)
One primer flask from Afghanistan
One powder flask from Pakistan, probably Mughal
One Ottoman powder measure
One Ottoman bullet box
One Moroccan primer flask...
BUT after the thread on the Kohl flasks, I wonder if my primer flask is not in fact a khol flask...What do you think Khanjar?
All the best,
Kubur

The pictures

Oh Great!! Even more. All beautiful!! Thanks Kubar for Posting. Hope we see some more. There are more of these collected here on this Forum than I first thought. Great.
Do you think there would be enought interest if I started a new Thread with a different Ethno gun each week? Thanks, Rick.

Hi Kubur,
I assume you are referring to the last pic that you show? As you do not show size of the item, or if there is a "wand" inside, I can not comment on what it actually is. IF there is a wand inside then it is a Kohl pot. The loops on the outside would perhaps suggest that it IS a Kohl but then they could also be for a suspension cord I suppose.

Hi Rick,
Nice to see you back

A different Ethno firearm each week? Why not!
Regards,
Norman.

If all of us on this Tread will post pics of their Ethnographic firearms, I believe we could all enjoy a good time....My special area of interest are the Balkan/Ottoman/Turkish/Greek, etc. flintlock firearms. Some I have have been restored to firing condition.

I've only posted a couple in the past, but have many more if you are all interested….
Do you think there would be enough interest if I started a new Thread with a different Ethno gun each week?

I would certainly be very interested!

Hi Berkley. Thanks for the Link. I have some catching up to do.

Since you brought up Jazail, I'll start with that one. Thanks, Rick.

Hi Norman! How have you been? Yes, I've been away too long.
Those two Greek bullet containers are really nice. The Greek specimens always seem to bring more $ than their Turkish counterparts.
I own a lot of Ethno guns, many in restored shooting condition which some of the Forum members might find interesting. So I guess there is no time like the present. So I'll post the first one today in the Ethno Arms section.
Do you still have that Scottish Snaphaunce? Thanks, Rick.

Good thanks Rick and yes I've still got the 'Scottish' snaphaunce and the ball and bits are still in the breech

I'm really looking forward to your firearms threads

My Regards,
Norman.
