Russian description - translation, help needed !
Hi,
Please can anybody translate the attached information concerning the whereabouts of the powder flask? It is most probably in a museum, maybe in Warsaw, Poland: http://silverwolf.lviv.ua/forum/view...hp?f=25&t=5212, the first item. Thanks and best, Michael Last edited by Matchlock; 23rd June 2012 at 05:33 PM. |

Header is: Re: Powder flasks, [the term for a gunpowder measuring device for reloading the gun, I don't remember it's exact translation from Russian].
Post date is 30th of March, 2011. Description says: Warsaw, Polish Army Museum, all are dated by 2nd half of XVII c. |
