Although one of the most famous uses of guns in samurai warfare was the Battle of Nagashino in 1575; one of the first recorded uses of firearms was the Battle of Uedahara in 1548. #samurai #gunsamurai #松本城 #松本城鉄砲隊 #侍 #火縄銃 #砲術

50g of gunpowder. Absolutely. There was some ‘disbelief’ about last week’s upload so this time we recorded the whole loading/shooting process! This was our last practice before our demonstration at Matsumoto Castle next week! Join us if you can!

I wish this ozutsu was a regular display piece at Matsumoto Castle; but it is normally kept in a climate controlled vault, with the rest of the highly valuable and unique weapons in the collection.

This is an anti material weapon…. I’m tired of ‘scholars’ saying ‘oh but the cavalry…’, ‘that could not hit…’; so slow’. We know. This is not a general infantry weapon. If you were a battlefield commander in samurai Japan - how would you use this weapon? This is what they had.

This is the closest the samurai could get to ‘rapid fire’, during that period of history. It wasn’t until the introduction of cartridge fed weapons in the mid 1800’s that tactics started to change. But by then the samurai were coming to an end…

Hōjutsu training. In traditional Japanese gunnery, gunners use equipment from the age of the samurai - meaning that practitioners have a genuine and tangible link to Japan’s history, every time they train or take part in demonstrations.
