After a while I modified the holster of the pistol. Now there is enough space for a rifle.

I like your redcoat courier!  How about giving him a sabre and a pair of pistols?  Officers and cavalrymen would usually have a brace of pistols with one on each side at the front of the saddle, but because this isn't really possible with Playmobi, two in the rear would do.

Well, he’s a courier. But about as “discrete” as if he read the message aloud.
A discrete courier wouldn’t wear a uniform, ad never a bandanna over his face; “Just” a uniform might actually have been discrete, since it’s “just another lobsterback doing some menial chore (probably delivering a letter).”
He’s still cool-looking, though. :D

Give him 2 pistols and he's a smashing highwayman.

"STAND AND DELIVER!"

Hello,

thank you for your comments. The courier is not very secret  :D It's typically like in the old hollywood-films and not right realistic.

Pistols was my first idea too, but then I took the short rifel. I think it is easy to handle on a horseback, isn't it. I am not a very good rider  :D I'm sure, some of you have more experience with horses. I only can try to fall not down from it.

*bennain Logo kennt der Jedi den Song  ;). Yes, Jedi knows this song!

Kind regards

Generally speaking yes (what we currently call “carbines” were based on the concept of short-barreled muskets specifically developed for cavaliers and other horse-mounted people), but there was another type of weapon called the Horse Pistol- Essnetially VERY short-barreled, stockless shotguns.
Of course, PM doesn’t produce anything like that, so you go with what you got, ¿right? :D

Nice work!

I will suggest you to give him a knife for quiet courier missions

¿Hey, how did I miss this?
Years ago I started doing something like this, but the quivers that were available back then were the full-body style, not the independent pouch style that exists now, so they didn’t come out nearly this nice.:(
