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?

- Sorry, I was very busy and only now can answer. This scene is covered with thick smoke, and there isn't any better images of these weapons. So, let's see the muskets:
and the pistol:
Reenactors tend to use weapons, correct for the described era, and as far as I know, "doglock" weapons were used in English Civil war. So maybe this musket is one of such guns. Greg-Z (talk) 14:20, 19 September 2019 (EDT)
- The musket is obviosly flintlock. About the pistol - the hammer shape seems to be flintlock, but this pistol lack a freezen (the typical atribute of flintlock guns). Possible, this part was broken, or, it's percussion cap pistol, and the hammer is just mocked up. Is this pistol firing onscreen? Pyramid Silent (talk) 15:00, 19 September 2019 (EDT)
