Talk:Guide to Muzzleloaders

Should we have a section on this page for Matchlock muskets and maybe hand cannons too? After all they are muzzle loading firearms even though they are distinctive enough that people probably won't misidentify them. Also, maybe we should have a note that clarifies the different meanings of the term 'musket'. The term now is used to denote a smoothbore muzzle loading long arm, however it used to be used to identify all military long arms such as Winchester having different 'sport' and 'musket' configurations for their weapons. -Anonymous

Yeah, I'm actually going to expand that section quite a bit, I just didn't have time tonight as I was going out with friends. - Nyles
