These crude devices can only fire once before reloading and prone to failure. Slow, inaccurate and unreliable, they are only made and used on backwards planets{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2}}; the planet [[Birmingham]] is one of the more known of these.{{Fn|1}} However, they are extremely easy to construct and maintain. For this reason they are know to be quite popular among outlaw members of [[Hive]] societies such as the [[Ratskin]]s and [[Scalies]] of the [[Necromunda (Planet)|Necromundan]] [[underhive]]s.{{Fn|4}} The [[Planetary Defense Force]]s of [[Feral World|Feral]] and [[Feudal World]]s also sometimes make use of muskets.{{Fn|3}}
==Siskan “Father Shot” Musket==
The reliable, beautiful yet gruesome '''[[Sisk|Siskan]] “Father Shot” Musket''' is made from a [[human]] thighbone, traditionally sourced from the wielder’s ancestor and is highly sought after in many noble circles. It uses an iron-capped tooth as its striking mechanism and has a reputation for lucky hits. The musket is also produced by poorer artificers from bones brought in by well-paying off-worlders.{{Fn|5}}
