Sorry- simply not possible to answer a question that broad. They were made over many years, in different countries, by different makers and to different levels of quality. However, they were expensive enough that the average man did not own a pistol. While he might own a rifle or shotgun, pistols were a "gentleman's" weapon, and a wealthy merchant or landowner might have a set custom made for them. The average soldier did not have a pistol- they would usually be carried by an officer.

The process involved pouring gunpowder down the barrel, inserting a lead ball, and then priming the pan with more powder.

Does Fable 2 have guns in it?

Yes. Fable 2 has a arsenal of guns. Rifles and pistols, flintlocks or clockworks, there are many different types. Flintlock has the most power of the guns, but the slowest rate of fire, Like a musket. Turret mechanisms, are like a pepper box revolver, and can fire six times before having to reload. Their looks resemble a chain gun. Clockwork mechanism pistols and rifles have the least damage, but are like a semiautomatic rifle, and are reloaded by magazines. It can fire five times and then reloads in about 1 second, but the damage is half, if not less than a turret, making the flintlock about 4 times more powerful than a clockwork. Blunderbuss is a style of rifle, with a fluted barrel. It is a flintlock that has small metal BB's loaded into it. The range of these guns are short, but they do area spread damage. They have the highest damage power, and cause characters to stagger back. Rifles in fable 2 are very powerful but slower to reload than pistols. Clockwork pistols, even master clockwork pistols have about a 20-35 damage range, where as a flintlock pistol has the damage range of 70-87. The highest damage dealing (non-enchanted) gun is the master blunderbuss, having a damage range of 120-139.
