They were regulated and managed by local officials and I haven't found any information about them in the open state archives (Most of archives in Russia are still closed for readers).

 [TMP] "Eureka 100 Club Hungarians, Croats, Pandurs 1740-48" Topic
I'm planning 100 Club orders for the Croats and the Pandurs seperately, but both of them will be needing a fair amount of study before I can come up with anything really definate on their dress.
I think the way to go might be to slowly put in seperate 100 Club orders for the differing Croat regiments; likewise to put one in for the Trenck Pandurs as well.
I think the first corps to do might be the Warasdiners, as they seem to have been a fairly uniform lot.

Jiří Hynek, president of Association of the Defense Industry of the Czech Republic, an independent group of more than 100 companies in the defense sector, says it would be better to hold off on the purchase at a time when NATO is working to unify different countries' weapon technologies.

 “Dude, who stole my tank?” at Taking Aim
That’s the question the Belgian military are asking today, after it emerged that 15 of their Pandur armoured personnel carriers were stolen from under the UN’s noses.
They’d lent the Pandur (such a good name) APCs to the UN, for a peacekeeping operation in Africa.  This is pretty standard practice for Western nations, who want to seem like committed international citizens - they supply the equipment for peacekeeping missions, while Third World soldiers risk their lives.
Anyway, the ship carrying the Pandurs seems to have been diverted to a port in Equatorial Guinea, where the crew and soldiers guarding them were arrested, and the Pandurs were nicked.  The soldiers (from Benin, not Belgium) were released, but no-one knows where they are now.

Musketeers, arquebusiers, and mounted infantry, like the French chasseur, succeeded on the battlefield when large numbers of pikemen were absent.
The firearms sported by these types of units, including Austrian pandurs, English highlanders, and Russian strelets all carried powerful, if unreliable gunpowder weapons.
The most interesting facet of these troop types was the combination of medieval armor and equipment that many types still relied on, coupled with their more modern 16th and 17th century weapons.
