Che Dian Chong
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The che dian chong (Template:Zh) is a breech-loading, cartridge-using musket invented by Zhao Shizhen (趙士禎) during the Ming dynasty for the dynasty's arsenals.[1] Like all early breech loading fireams, gas leakage was a limitation and danger present in the weapon's mechanism.[2]
The zi mu chong is also a breech loading musket, the earliest breech-loader musket known. It was indigenously developed in China in the late 16th century.[3]
