Jim, Jens quote says "It is also mentioned that these short guns were likely made for a boy or a woman." "Likely" is subjective, and since there are several types which ones, carbines or pistols, and what was Elgood basing this on, an older reference, images of a boy or woman using a short matchlock, more research is needed.
