	Ah, here's a problem with a "musket" category: [[Tanegashima]]. It's not a musket, it's an arquebus. I stuck that in Category:Smoothbore for now, but that's not ideal either since it should technically include most shotguns. Thoughts?

	:I don't really think we need a "Smoothbore" category. As you say it would include most shoguns along with a lot of "bazooka" type weapons and some grenade launchers. Also, the main purpose of the categories is to help people identify guns, and whether or not something is rifled is generally not apparent in a film. I think just having a "Muzzleloader" category is good enough. If we wanted to be technically correct, we could have "Long Gun" and "Handgun" categories, as these would be pretty much all encompassing. For example the Tanegashima would go in the "Handgun" category as it has no shoulder stock. As Funkychinaman said a "Handgun" category would contain pistols and revolvers (although countries other than America do not really distinguish the term pistol from handgun, it is useful to use the American definition for categorisation). --[[User:Commando552\|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552\|talk]]) 13:18, 25 February 2013 (EST)		:I don't really think we need a "Smoothbore" category.

			[[Image:English Doglock Muskets.jpg\|thumb\|right\|500px\|Modern reproduction of 17th Century English Doglock muskets.]]
			The '''Doglock musket''', (named after the dog catch safety behind the cock), replaced the Jacobean/English lock of the early 1600's. The Doglock came into being around the 1640's and were popular in the British armed forces until about 1715. They remained in use as a regular issued weapon in the British navy for many years after this and eventually evolved into the Sea Service musket of the 1730's. These muskets were very popular in the colonies from the Caribbean to Canada.
