Default More Early Organ Guns

Here are different types of stocked multibarrel organ guns, drawn by Bartholomäus Freysleben, Inventarium Büchsen und Zeug (Guns and Accouterments), 1495-1500, Cod. icon. 222.

Illustrated below is a remarkable triple barrel haquebut without a lock mechanism; its barrels had to be ignited separately.
