Hi Andi, 
 
I photoshopped the picture of those two wrought iron haquebut barrels, which, in all probability, were made in Suhl/Thuringia, in about 1530. 
However, they do not feature what Alexender called tube fastening, meaning rear sockets for a wooden tiller stock, as that way of stocking a barrel had been outdated by ca. 1500, at the latest. 
 
Is this photo authored/copyrighted by you, or by the Schützengilde Woldegk? 
 
Best, 
Michael
