Hi Alexander,

I did not save Martin's complete ms as there is very little stuff relevant to freaks like us contained. The codex is preserved in the Bavarian State Library Munich, cgm 598, but is, as I just checked, not available online at the moment.

Anyway, I sent you all the illustrations on guns etc. in there. Enjoy!

Best,
Michael
