In the first chapter of A Study in Scarlet, Watson mentions the injury in his brief account of his service during the 阿富汗 war:

"I was struck on the shoulder 由 a link bullet, which shattered the bone and grazed the subclavian artery. I should have fallen into the hands of the murderous Ghazis had it not been for the devotion and courage shown 由 Murray, my orderly, who threw me across a pack-horse and succeeded in bringing me safely to the British lines."

Wikipedia describes a Jezail as "an 阿富汗 matchlock 或者 flintlock 滑膛枪 fired from a forked rest."

You're in luck because A Study in Scarlet can be read link on 谷歌 books. The above excerpt is from the very first page of Chapter 1. :)
