You will be able to observe armaments, arquebuses, muskets, and the procedure for loading and preparing to fire by gun members wearing 16-17th century samurai-style dress. Hear the roaring sound of the arquebuses and muskets being fired.

In fall, this event is held as part of the Matsumoto Castle Festival. Also, see the Matsumoto Gun Corps English website.
