Michael, It is a brilliant finding! This is exactly the same barrel
 It is very important for me. 'Cause it probably belongs to Burgundian wars period.

Are you really sure, Alexender,
That this is the very same barrel you posted? If my old eyes are not deceiving me the barrel in the Grandson museum does not seem to have the rear (left) barrel loop, as I marked with the left arrow.  Best, Michael |

It seems that the barrel are thin, long and lightweight and have a small calibre. We can ever seen so lightweight weapon in Schillings chronics. It seems that cross-section of barrel is square (probably hexagon with very obtuse angle in the up and down sides (look at the picture "A")) Now I am waiting these photo with a high resolution from one good man
