Wouldn't use them for Napoleonic era, much earlier even pre 7yw. |

The pics are from the League of Augsburg page, which deals with the late 17th and very early 18th. It looks like they're carrying matchlocks. Note that in the 17th century, most cossacks were infantry. |

Let me guess, 28s right? Very nice, beautiful paint job, wrong scale, for me anyway. I'm beginning to feel like the red-haired step child here, no offense to all the red-haired step children out there, being my entire collection is 15s. |

Russian militia has matchlocks in the Napoleon Era too…
And maybe… they dress in a very similar way?…

Why would militia use match locks? The production of match coard was actually more expensive then using flint. I'm not sure there was any real production of match coard at this point. |
