No, he was trying to get into the spirit of Thanksgiving and dress as a pilgrim (the origin of the holiday). Maybe he didn't know that the gun was loaded when he gave it to Woodstock, who fired it due to it being to heavy. It is supposed to be funny, okay? Don't read so much into this.

"What was Snoopy doing bringing a loaded musket into Charlie Brown's house for? "

That is not grammatically correct.

"What for" means "why"

So basically you are asking, "Why was snoopy doing", which doesn't make sense.

Just remove the 'for', and it's all good.

Here are grammatically correct versions:

"What was Snoopy doing bringing a loaded musket into Charlie Brown's house?" (Though it's not owned by Charlie Brown, and in any case, it doesn't need to be specified)

"What did Snoopy bring a loded musket into Charlie Brown's house for?"

Your sentence looks like it tries to mix both sentences, and becomes broken because of it.
