Flintlock is the general term for any firearm based on the flintlock mechanism. The term may also apply to the mechanism itself. Introduced at the beginning of the 17th century, the flintlock rapidly replaced earlier firearm-ignition technologies, such as the doglock, matchlock, and wheellock mechanisms.ost flintlocks were produced at a time before modern manufacturing processes became common. Even in mass-produced weapons, parts were often handmade. If a flintlock became damaged, or parts wore out due to age, the damaged parts were not easily replaced.
There were revolver-type guns that date back to the the 1500's, but are not true revolvers. Elisha Collier invented the first true revolver in any widespread production, 18 years before Samuel Colt saw Collier's inventions while serving as a cabin boy, and came up with his own design. Colt's design was the first widely adopted modern caplock revolver, the Colt Paterson; but he was not the inventor.
