I've seen a lot of talk about how muskets don't "belong" in oblivion. and for the most part, I agree. firearms in general would kind of ruin the elder scrolls games. HOWEVER: Muskets are not modern firearms, they fit with the midevil theme, and rifle/blunderbuss style weapons could easily be done in knifscope with some slightly tweaked staff animations. And you could even make it lore friendly, Creating muskets powered by magic instead of traditional black powder, Created by the ancient Dwemer or something. Think about it for a second: the dwemer have steam powered automatons and robots, and they are master smiths. what's to stop them from making a "Dwemer Musket"?
