Some progress! No dimensions yet I'm afraid but I've been in contact with the Varna museum.

The guns in question actually appear to be at the following museum. http://www.varnenchikmuseum.com/Eng

I was given contact information for this museum and have written them. So hopefully I'll have a result for you soon!

Perfect, that is exactly what i wanted to know. Though i am suprised by the weight of the pieces beeing so light.. the measurements are the really interesting part.
Did they also include pictures by any chance?

No pictures, I can ask for few more if you want. They are speaking English and seem very helpful! Perhaps it will be easiest if you PM me your email address and I will send you the contact I have now at the museum.
