Skaerflint — a rifled flintlock. The standard weapon of every army in the world.

Notes

Made by every city that has smiths, since nobody arms soldiers entirely from a foreign supplier. The difference is the lock, which takes precision at a scale only Forgegate can manage, so a great many Skaerflints are locally made stocks and barrels around a Forgegate-marked lock. Clearhold makes its own entirely and its own are excellent.
