A firearm is defined as any weapon that expels a projectile through the action of an explosive. This includes handguns, rifles, shotguns, machine guns, and automatic weapons. The projectile is usually a bullet, but can also be a shot, slug, or other type of projectile. The firearm can be powered by various mechanisms such as gunpowder, air, or electricity. There are different types of firearms, including long guns (rifles and shotguns), handguns, and automatic weapons (machine guns, assault rifles, and submachine guns). Each type of firearm has different uses, depending on the situation. Long guns are often used for hunting, target shooting, and self-defense, while handguns are used mainly for self-defense. Automatic weapons are usually reserved for military and law enforcement use.
