Definition von harquebus im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

an obsolete matchlock firearm

(Askeri) The arquebus (sometimes spelled harquebus, harkbus or hackbut; from Dutch haakbus, meaning "hook gun") was a primitive firearm used in the 15th to 17th centuries. Like its successor, the musket, it was a smoothbore firearm, although somewhat smaller than its predecessors, which made it easier to carry. It was a forerunner of the rifle and other longarm firearms

The barrel was about forty inches long

A form of the harquebus was subsequently called arquebus with matchlock

{i} ancient type of portable firearm having a long barrel

A firearm with match holder, trigger, and tumbler, made in the second half of the 15th century
