Jezail
{
The jezail or jezzail (Pashto: جزائل, ultimately from the plural form Arabic: جزایل, "long [barrels]") is a simple, cost-efficient and often handmade long arm commonly used in Afghanistan in the past. It was popular amongst the Pashtun tribesmen, who deposed Shah Shuja. Jezails were primarily used by Jazāyerchi troops of Nader shah during Afsharid Iran and
in the First and Second Anglo-Afghan Wars by Pashtuns.
