Revision as of 03:40, 2 April 2013 English Alternative forms Etymology French mousquet, itself from Italian moschetto, diminutive of mosca ("fly"). Pronunciation Noun musket (plural muskets) - A species of firearm formerly carried by the infantry of an army. It was originally fired by means of a match, or matchlock, for which several mechanical appliances (including the flintlock, and finally the percussion lock) were successively substituted. This arm has been superseded by the rifle.
- Soldier, soldier, won't you marry me, with your musket, fife and drum.
