A fun example of the nuttier examples of bespoke gunsmitthing in the renaissance/very early modern era. This is an 8 shot matchlock, with 8 chambers in succession with 8 pans. The serpentine is connected to a slide where one pulls it back to fire each chamber.

While I no longer spend as much time as I did as a kid angsting over how bad the modern historical film industry is, looking at the absolute state of that Odyssey movie's costumes annoys me over how it pales to reality. A proper Troy era film would be a sight to see.
