Will the mounted ones (when they come) match the 'already released' dismounted?
I ask as I want to skirmish game, & will need mounted & dismounted that match.

Liking what you've done so far. :D

latest picture of a Cuera Trooper about to fire his Escopeta carbine....(.rear view)....... :o :-* :o :-*
a note to say The escopeta was a light, inexpensive musket or shotgun popularized in the mid-seventeenth century by Spanish cavalry on the colonial frontier. It had a .69 caliber and a 38½" barrel. Although it lacked accuracy, it was still considered acceptable for use against Indigenous peoples in Mexico, Louisiana, Florida, and Texas. Mounted troops often carried it across the saddle bow in a soft leather sheath called a funda or ord. The escopeta's recoil made it challenging to aim, contributing to its reputation as a noisy but imprecise weapon. Despite being replaced by other arms, it remained popular with mounted troops on the northern frontier1. Francisco Targarona, a royal gun maker in Madrid, produced escopetas that served as models for other Spanish gunsmiths. These weapons played a role in settling Alta California beginning in 17692. Overall, the escopeta was a sturdy and dependable firearm used for nearly 200 years on the northern frontier

So I've finally got underway. One of each Apache is now on order.

It's a start  :D
I'm not a mercenary. Killing's more of a hobby for me.
