			Handgonne from exibition of Durasov's Palace has some interesting details. The muzzle have a shape of bell. This detail makes it similar to handgonne from this site http://raabs.homepage.t-online.de/Me...nbuechse01.htm 
		
		
		
			Also they both has a conical barrel which is bounded by ring and they both has a tube for pole. So they both has a very similar style...  |

			Exactly, Alexander, 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	And while the second is of Spanish provenance, they can both be dated to ca. 1440-50. Best, Michael  |
