It was part of a weapon family with numerous variants, e.g. for the light infantry, artillery and a musketoon for the cavalry. Modèle 1777 corrigé en l' an IXAfter the French Revolutionary Wars, first consul Napoleon Bonaparte commissioned a rework; some minor modifications on the lock, bayonet and stock resulted in 1800 in the "corrected" model, also called "Modèle 1777 corrigé". Other improvementsThe Musket was further improved in 1816 and 1822. Impact7 million muskets were produced, including variants 1800 (an IX), 1816 and 1822, but not including muskets like the Austrian 1798 or the Prussian 1809, which were mere clones of the French 1777. Until World War I, no other firearm was produced in such large numbers. Properly trained French infantry were expected to be able to fire three volleys a minute with the 1777. A trained infantryman could hit a man sized target at 80 yards but anything further required an increasing amount of luck[1] and the musket became wildly inaccurate at long range. Compared to the British Brown Bess, it fired musket balls that fitted more tightly into the barrel resulting in a better accuracy but a lower rate of fire and more fouling issues. The Grande Armée marched into the German countries and left approx. 750,000 muskets retreating in 1815; until about 1840, French weapons were used in Germany. {{Gallery|title = Details of the musket |align = center|width=180|height=120 |File:French infantry musket model 1777-MCAH HIS 91 01-IMG 8105-gradient.jpg|The flintlock mechanism |File:French infantry musket model 1777-MCAH HIS 91 01-IMG 8107-gradient.jpg|The muzzle }} See also
