Ignite Industries always keeps us guessing as to what period of history they’ll tackle next. This month they take us back to 17th century Europe and the introduction of firearms to the military arsenals of the dominating world powers of that age, England and France.
I
ngnite’s 17th Century “Musketeer,” comes fully outfitted in period
attire and accessories, right down to his boot socks. The musket is
period authentic as well, representing the grandfather of today’s long
gun. This version actually used a length of slow-burning rope to ignite
the gunpowder charge, a technology that preceded the flintlock. This
figure is available to order now from select online retailer that carry
the Ignite brand.
