Firearms

War. Conflict. Famine. Pestilence - these are the four horsemen of Apocalypse as the people in the mid-ages imagined them. They stormed through countries and cities, leaving thousands dead, injured, frightened or crying behind. The first two - the most merciful ones, or to be more precise, the fatal tools they use to make their evil deeds are the subject of my essay. To be precise, I'm going to speak about the types of modern firearms - the ones that a single man can handle and which fire bullets - very simple, easy-to-use and deadly.

Revolvers - these can be described as pistols with revolving chamber which enables you to fire several shots without reloading. Revolvers were popular in the end of XIX - beginning of XX century because they are quite easy to use, reliable, and cheap, but were soon replaced by pistols because of their limited capacity and mobility. However, revolvers are still used by the policemen -- large-caliber bullets they use ("Magnum" 45 or 36 millimeter) can knock out an outlaw at first shot, even if fired in foot. Revolvers usually hold 5, 6, or 7 bullets. There are 2 major types of revolvers: with single and simultaneous extraction of fired shells. In the first case, after you're done sho


Pistol - The main difference between revolvers and pistols it that the revolvers use the muscular force of the shooter to recharge, and on the other hand, pistols use the energy of gunpowder gases and don't have revolving chambers. There are lots of different designs of pistols, but the principle of work is the same. Pistol's bullets are usually located in its handle, and are of a smaller caliber than those of revolver. The capacity of the pistol's cartridge can range from 5 to 30 bullets and pistols shoot automatically, as many times as you pull the trigger (of course, until it runs out of bullets). The only thing is that you have to send one bullet in the barrel by dragging the top part of the pistol (or maybe some in some other way, depending on the model of a pistol) before you start the shoot-out.

Well, in conclusion, I don't want to say something like "the firearms are bad, they kill people, let's ban them." No! The weapons have always existed, and will always exist. Unfortunately, death is the principle on which our nature and the world rests - "kill, or be killed" (by the way, heart diseases and road accidents kill more people a day than firearms do), so banning and stopping the production of firearms would not be a smart thing to do. If the firearms and diseases would have gone and no one would die, can you imagine what would have happened? The population would increase, there would be a lack of food, space to live, etc.... All we're able to do is just to limit the usage of firearms - they exist, and all we can do is just accept that.

Machine guns - are the most widespread type of a firearm nowadays. They use bullets bigger than those of a pistol (which are quite forceless) and smaller than those of a rifle (which are too powerful). This allows machine-guns to maintain a high rate of fire in addition to a long range. Of course, everybody is
