			\|colspan="5"\|This flintlock pistol has a better accuracy at short range, and is thus less powerful than the musket. However, it's more comfortable in a fight than on a battlefield, and easier to wield, offering more versatility. Because of the time it takes to reload after every single shot, many people will carry two or more pistols at the same time.
