FOR REENACTMENT?
Contrary to the cases of duels with swords, the use of these weapons equaled opponents, since they were in the same conditions when shooting.
These duels were developed by the will of one of the parties to wash an insult to his honor. The target was generally not to kill the opponent, but to achieve "satisfaction", for example by restoring one's honor by putting life at extreme to defend it. In many countries, duels were not recognized as a legal way of saving honor, so the duelists used to doing this in secluded places and almost always at dawn.
