Military Dictionary and Gazetteer
firelocks
Were fire-arms formerly used by foot-soldiers; they were so called from their producing fire of themselves, by the action of the flint and steel. They were first made use of in 1690, but it is not ascertained when they were first invented. About the middle of the last century a firelock was called, by military writers, asnapbaan, which being a low Dutch word, seems to indicate its being a Dutch invention.
