Photos from museum of artillery

Let me please hijack your thread, Spiridonov?
The quality and prime interest of these pictures taken at the artillery museum in St. Petersburg is just the opposite of the ones we can see here:

The only couple amazing pieces i found, were an experimental square barrel cannon and a nice early stone throwing crossbow.
Did you know this crossbow, Michael?
