If you ever wondered what's inside an early 16th century matchlock gun barrel, and how the bullets were made, it's your content. Let me guide you through a research project I am deeply involved in about the early matchlock firearms of the first decades of the 16th century and the battle of Mohács in 1526. The laboratory of Continental Automotive Hungary Ltd. is providing the laboratory background for the X-Ray, CT and electron-microscope examination of the 16th century artifacts.
