A gun is a projectile weapon. It launches one or more projectiles from a tube by means of gas. If the gas is produced by burning the gun is classified a firearm. If the gas is compressed by means of a spring or fed from a reservoir the gun is classified an air gun.
Guns intended to be fired from the shoulder and held by both hands are called long arms. Guns meant to be operated by a single hand and lacking a stock are called handguns.
Guns firing multiple projectiles consecutively by a single action of the trigger are called machine guns.
Large guns mounted on vehicles, ships or fortifications are called cannons.
There are also tools that are called guns because of their shape and similarity of controls to a handgun. This would include nail guns, glue guns, caulk guns, staple guns and the like.
