so extremely heavy that they could not
be used without a rest They were
provided with matchlocks and were eff

followed after, like caddies on a golf

powder were carried separately and
the preparation and adjustment of the
match took a long time.
Before long, however, improvements
began to be made. The guns became
lighter in construction, and the soldiers

which were suspended number of lit
