Do you think there would be enought interest if I started a new Thread with a different Ethno gun each week? Thanks, Rick.

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.

I think mine is a Barut Dan. Some say Persian, others say Afghan.
I wonder whether those filed grooves are just decoration or some kind of mark.

Nice flask Fernando. How big is it?
I THINK that the marks are only decoration as I have seen similar on other flasks.

Default Powder Flask or something else

This ended on eBay recently, I only submitted a nominal bid and didn't win it. I am not entirely sure what it is. Has anyone seen something similar?
