16th Century Japanese Matchlock - Tanegashima

My take on the 16th century Japanese matchlock, or Tanegashima. Originally produced on the Japanese island of the same name. The markings on this model, known as Kamon, are the Go-san no Kiri (center) indicating it was owned by a lesser-ranking samurai, and the Ito Inazuma (left and right) indicating it was owned by a member of the Ito clan. The Ito Inazuma is also strongly associated with lightning, which I chose because of the thunderous sound the weapon makes when fired.
