Are these weapoons from that time?
Dear Jim,
Thank very much, you are always here with ideas and encouragement for everyone.
Regarding the Osprey publication, it only has local dress and weapons variations from other balkan areas, not Greece and nothing about Crete. Also does not have military uniforms from 1770.
Anyway, below there are photos from a museum of 2 weapons that supposed to be from that time. Can somebody verify that are not made after 1770?
The pistol has a crown mark that flintlock collectors may recognise its date.
The yataghan also has a makers mark, but this is toupher..
Any ideas?
