A pistol is a single hand firearm with a short barrel.
its a weapon so yeah fire arm. "Weapon" and "firearm" are not interchangeable terms. The definition of "firearm" is basically as follows: a small arms weapon, as a rifle or pistol, from which a projectile is fired by gunpowder. So, a slingshot does not meet that definition, but it is also not a toy.
