RUSSIAN CITY GUNNERS OF THE SECOND HALF OF THE XVII CENTURY
One of the topics insufficiently covered in science is the evolution of the situation of small service people (soldiers, city Cossacks, archers, persons of the Pushkin rank) in Russia.

They performed compulsory military service: gunners served with large-caliber and medium artillery guns, zatinschiki-with small-caliber artillery, collars were city guards.
