| Title |
Tschinki (Wheel-Lock Hunting Rifle) |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
| Description |
This type of hunting gun owes its name to the town of Teschen in Silesia (now southern Poland) which, as early as 1580, was already associated with a particular type of gun. The precise date of the invention of the Tschinke is unknown, though a dated example of 1610 survives in the Imperial Armouries in Vienna. |
