But I've always wondered, why don't you see any matchlock or wheel lock muzzle loaders?
In the States there seems to be loads of them, perhaps because a muzzle loaders aren't, legally, recognised as firearms, and people just built them from kits, maybe that has something to do with it?
Anyway, anyone got any idea? I've only ever seen two, and fired one matchlock in my time - where are the rest hiding. I'd love a wheel lock pistol
