On the other hand, sporadic mentions of hackbuts appear in registers of infantry detachments as late as the first half of the 16th c. These hackbuts were light, smaller calibre weapons that could be easily operated by a single soldier. An example of such a weapon is offered by a barrel safeguarded at the Museum of Jarosław, which is the subject of this paper.}, title={A hackbut from the Museum in Jarosław – a contribution to the knowledge of hand-held firearms of Polish infantry in the 16th c.}, type={Text}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/Content/236620/124776.pdf}, keywords={firearms, hackbut, Jarosław, Renaissance}, }
