I like the outfits, nice work.

Thanks.

Your costumery is impeccable bud.

Thanks. Though I'll have to admit that I used tons of references.

Thank you very much.
Considering the recoil hand cannons produced( http://www.koreanarchery.org/classi.....ps/seungja.mpg ), I guess those who used them would have been bad-ass indeed.

Well, to tell the truth, it was uncommon to fire a chajungjeon(次中箭, the projectile shot in the footage) from a hand cannon; smaller bolts such as chasojeon(次小箭) or sejeon(細箭), and lead balls were much more common projectiles for them.

I'll also have to admit that recoil in the footage is exaggerated; it seems that the shooter, unfamiliar with the weapon, was aiming in wrong posture(the shaft has to be tucked under arm, as shown by this drawing of Ming Dynasty soldiers firing their triple barreled hand cannons at Manchu cavalry) and was unprepared for the recoil.

Well, that link doesn't work. The mentioned drawing is the second image from bottom in this page.

For high recoil shooting, some use an under the arm hold. They use a really strong grip that can still control the recoiling mass without having the initial impulse shock to the body if it in the shoulder.

Duh... Which is, of course, the only way to hold the long handle hand cannon.

Ah yes the Handcannon/ Firetube, you barely find it in any images. I have it carried by an Italian Soldier from the early 15th Century.
