Yes, flintlock muskets are generally more accurate than flintlock pistols. The primary reason is the longer barrel length of muskets, which allows for better control, improved projectile velocity, and more stable aiming. Muskets are typically fired using two hands and often from the shoulder, increasing accuracy over distance. Flintlock pistols, on the other hand, have shorter barrels and are designed for close-range use, making them less precise. While both are limited by smoothbore designs in many cases, muskets still outperform pistols in range and consistency.
Mainly flintlock smoothbore muskets, with a few flintlock rifles. There were also flintlock pistols and "fowling pieces"- shotguns.
