Flint-lock system:
"FLINTLOCK' is a general term for any firearm using a flintlock ignition mechanism, the first of which appeared in western Europe in the early 16th century. The term can also be applied to a particular form of the mechanism itself, known as true flintlock, which was introduced in the early 17th century and gradually replaced earlier firearm ignition technologies.
The true flintlock remained in common use for over two centuries, replaced by the percussion cap and later by cartridge systems in the early and mid-19th century.
