Best Answer

It depends on the firearm in question and the intensity of the rain. For instance, a flintlock (a type of muzzleloader) will probably not work in a heavy downpour. But due to the design it stands a good chance of firing in a light rain. More modern weapons such as assault rifles can fire in rain, and some are even designed to be able to fire underwater.
