Just for Information: There has been a blunderbuss-gun introduced in the Austrian cuirassier-regiments. 12 men of these regiments used so called "trombones M 1759" with a horizontally very wide muzzle. These guns had brass mountings, whereas the following model of the same characteristics but with iron mountings was introduced in 1781. These guns were loaded with 12 small bullets or hacked lead.
