small arms weapon (gun or rifle).
An assembly of a barrel and action from which a projectile is propelled through a deflagration of propellant.
any weapon that is designed to (or may readily be converted to) expel a projectile by the action of an explosive. This includes guns, bombs, grenades, mines, rockets, missiles, pipebombs, or similar devices designed to explode and capable of causing bodily harm or property damage.
A mechanism which throws projectiles using the energy produced through rapid, confined burning of a propellant. Neither pellet guns nor BB guns are firearms, because their projectiles are propelled by simple air pressure rather than by burned propellant. Paintball guns are not firearms, for the same reason.
A weapon that uses gunpowder to discharge a shot.
Any gun which uses the combustion of a propellant or an explosive to discharge a projectile.
A rifle, shotgun or handgun using gunpowder as a propellant. By federal definition, under the 1968 Gun Control Act, antiques are excepted. Under the National Firearms Act, the word designates machine guns, etc. Airguns are not firearms.
A firearm is a device that can be used as a weapon that fires either single or multiple projectiles propelled at high velocity by the gases produced through rapid, confined burning of a propellant. This process of rapid burning is technically known as deflagration. In older firearms, this propellant was typically black powder, but modern firearms use smokeless powder, cordite, or other propellants.
