The large, long, heavy hand-cannon used for military purposes were quite unsuited to the chase, but from certain references in mediæval manuscripts it appears that they were occasionally so used. The earliest gun at all suited to purposes of sport is the short matchlock here shown; but it may have been intended to serve primarily as a weapon of defence.
