The US Army is the oldest and longest serving branch of the Military, it was established on June 14, 1775.
Google Earth shows Area 51, and 4 runways. The longest (24000 ft) is closed (yellow xs painted on runway). Two may be dry lake runways, at about 10,000 and 11,000 ft. The remaining asphalt runway is about 13,800 ft.
This varies greatly. Small general aviation airports may have runways as short as 1500 feet. Most municipals have runways that are at least 3000 feet. Your typical international airport designed for airline traffic will have runways around 10,000 feet long. The space shuttle landing facility has one of the longest runways in the world at 15,000 feet with 1000 feet of paved overrun space at each end.

The US military assumed that any attacks on the military base would be done by immigrant saboteurs. They disregarded warnings of a massing Japanese fleet and stored their ammo along with lining their planes up on runways so that it/they could be monitored and kept away from said suspected saboteurs.
The interstate highway system was designed to be used as military runways.
visual runways, non-precision instrument runways, and precision instrument runways
Campbeltown Airport has a runway which is 3049m long so is longer than Manston.

No reference for a savillion rifle. If you mean civilian, same as for a military rifle- it will depend on the caliber and barrel. Military rifles in the US are made by civilian companies.
