00:00 intro 00:18 Chapter I · 2 Types 03:37 Chapter II · How it works 07:11 outro The Japanese matchlock, known as the teppo, had two main types: the outside spring and the inside spring. The outside spring type resembled the button snap matchlock and was the more commonly seen version. It featured a large spring fixed on the outside. On the other hand, the inside spring type had a smaller space internally and utilized a spiral spring for power, similar to a mechanical watch. The working mechanism of both types revolved around a trigger lever that turned horizontally. The lever had a locking function, securing the cock with the help of a flat spring and a small raised part acting as a rail. In the firing stage, pulling the trigger caused the lever to turn, unlocking the cock and allowing it to ignite the priming powder. This leverage trigger system, with its unique horizontal lever design, became the iconic matchlock system of Japan. support ?: buymeacoffee.com/sebxcafe X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/sebastianh177 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sebastian__h17 My Animation: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLugaf4JE2z6bL5Q_4FVXLwhZclntiA6FY The Asian Firearms: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLugaf4JE2z6Y2VoRir8tcrBnykQjqjvs9 The American Firearms: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLugaf4JE2z6Z1gimhVfrrj-RYskvv0sAL Firearms Tech: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLugaf4JE2z6YdcrAdOEv0Q3S5NUvToMlY The Old Corps: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLugaf4JE2z6ZViBYxz_lMbBspuqFEdJnc ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrFV8ShdiaI

Some details need to be added? Actually there are many things that can be written in another story about bayonets, so in the future we may continue talking about some technical details of bayonets. And according to history, finally Asia might not invent the socket bayonets as Europe and it results in Asian musket soldiers almost not able to fight in a close range against enemies. So when Asian musket soldiers faced European musket soldiers, the Asian side would be in a very bad situation if the dual side had been in close range to fight. Meanwhile those Asian musket soldiers also needed to be protected so the ratio of muskets was lower than European military.
