EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from c.1880 showcases a fascinating array of hand-gun firing mechanisms, offering a glimpse into the evolution of weaponry during this period. From top to bottom, we see examples such as the Matchlock, Wheel lock arquebus, Snaphaunce Fowling-piece, Flint Fowling piece, and Percussion Fowling-piece or scent bottle lock of c1807.
Each mechanism tells a unique story of innovation and craftsmanship in the realm of arms and military technology. The intricate details captured in this wood engraving highlight the complexity and precision required to create these small yet powerful firearms.
As we study each firing mechanism closely, we are transported back in time to an era where these weapons played a crucial role in warfare, hunting, and sporting activities. The diversity of designs reflects the ingenuity of gunsmiths who continuously sought to improve upon existing models for better performance on the battlefield or during recreational pursuits.
This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of weapon development while also honoring the legacy of these historical artifacts that have shaped our understanding of war and defense strategies throughout history.
