Hi. Everyone. Struggling to create my first post and don't yet have a clue as how to go about it , so apologies in advance , I have really enjoyed reading and seeing some of the amazing items in your collections , I have 2 miquelet guns I am hoping to learn more about And will try and post photos ( if I can on the iPad ) , one is a double miquelet gun by Joseph Aguirre of eibar marked on the barrel as fabricated in eibar in 1811 from horse shoe nails , the other is by Nicholas bis ano d 1703 . Look forward to your input . Best regards. Shinyblades
