	Unlike typical military firearms which adhered to strict standards in construction, jezails were typically hand-crafted and therefore could vary widely in craftsmanship.

	While not manufactured for professional [[Europe]]an armies, they were still weapons built for war and as such, possessed long barrels and chambered large calibers.
