press space to shoot look below for lore i honestly like animating maybe slightly more than writing lore ======================================== The Plazski Revolving Musket was a flintlock musket with a revolving cylinder that allowed it to fire multiple shots without reloading, making it one of the first well-known repeating firearms in Tekkite history. Unlike other weapons I have currently covered in Tekkite history, this one was never intended as a military weapon, but Plazskis still sometimes ended up in the hands of Dynabloxian soldiers who saved up their pay to buy one. In the late 1760s, 3 (a Dynabloxian) felt increasingly fustrated with how slow the muzzleloaders of his time could fire, and began to wonder if he could manufacture simple, yet effective repeating firearms. So, after a few years of experimenting, in 1769 he began selling his revolving muskets to the Dynabloxian public. It had a small nieche as a good option for self-defense (as its almost-carbine-like size made it a bit easier to carry, plus this thing literally holds 6 shots in a age of most guns only holding 1) and as mentioned before, the Plazski was used by some Dynabloxian soldiers, but due to its cost and long reload time (because instead of having to load 1 barrel you essentially have to load 6 shorter ones) it was never really too popular. There was a rebirth of the "revolving musket/rifle" idea after the invention of the percussion cap and the proliferation of revolving pistols, but they only achieved slightly more popularity than the Plazski did, and were rendered obsolete after more practical repeating rifles were made (like the IR62, the KRCR, the Jarrodian longshot, etc).
