Some queston about musket and pistol
Maybe, I'm wrong, but at least one of the muskets isn't matchlock, but a flintlock.
Also, is the another screenshots of the wheellock pistol? Maybe, I'm wrong, but, possible, it's Matchlock Pistol, as the Wheellock Pistols has a bulged part under the lock. May this pistol can be seen from another screenshots?
