Japanese Matchlock

(1/5) > >>

bluelake:
Just the other day, I ordered a Japanese matchlock from John Buck.  He told me he hadn't made one before, but had good plans for one.  I'm really looking forward to it, both for work on my dissertation and also just for fun.  

Here's a page with all kinds of different Japanese matchlocks.  If you click on a picture, there are other pictures showing all different angles and even ones with the matchlocks taken apart.

Nothin' like a few matchlocks in a pike square for a fun afternoon...

That's a gorgeous rifle.  What kind of wood did the Japanese use to make their matchlocks with?
