Trömner guns at auction

Hermann Historica has two matchlock guns from Michael Trömner's collection in their upcoming auction. One is German about 1620, walnut stock marked with a script "K", item no. 65, starting price 4800 Euro.
The other, No. 68, is a heavy hakenbüchse from Regensuburg, beech stock, about 1640. Starting bid 6000 Euro

I have browsed, but not studied, the Viking accumulation of Matchlock's posts. Would anyone happen to know if either of these is described anywhere by Matchlock?

Being strictly amateur in this field, my interest is possibly getting back into building miniatures. A 1/3 scale model of no. 65 interests me. Haven't done this sort of thing for some decades, if I do so, would start out with some tolerable walnut & seamless 1/2" dia x .250" inside diameter (12.7 x 6.25mm) seamless tubing.
