I owe the image to the Russian forum Terra Teutonica, and the additional info to our brilliant member Alexander (Spiridonov), who visited me and my collection only two months ago!

Illustrated from top to bottom:

- haquebut barrel, ca. 1490
- haquebut barrel, ca. 1500, the hook obviously a later working addition
- two early 15th c. short barrels

Thank you so much, Alexander,
and hoping to see more from here soon.
Best as always,

Mikhail
