they fired with greater accuracy than the muskets.
IMPROVEMENT.
Their useful range was of more than 1 kilometer, while they were lethal within a range of 600 meters.
they used: muskets ,sharp rifles, gatling guns, and cannons
muskets IMPROVEMENT Sabres, revolvers, repeating rifles.
Muskets, Rifles, Swords, Cannons, and Mortars. A few short range naval rockets.
The main weapons used for world war 1 happen to be the muskets, poisonous gas, airplanes, and sniper rifles
they were better because they had riffled barrels which caused the bullet to spin. think of a football with a perfect spiral compared to a football going end over end. hope this helps
The rifles had much better range and accuracy over smoothbore muskets.
They were muskets, knives, cannons, pistols, and rifles. And muskets and rifles are different
Rifling - small spiral grooves in the barrel of the gun - cause the bullet to spin, and become gyroscopic stabilized. Smoothbore (musket or shotgun-style) barrels don't spin the bullet, and so it can tumble erratically. This causes the bullet to move off of its intended path, and will increase wind resistance. So rifles are preferable to muskets because they are more accurate, and shoot farther.
No they did not have rifles. They had muskets. They did not have rifles until the late 18th century.
Muskets have smooth bores and rifles have rifling - spiral grooves to make the bullet spin. Rifles have longer range and better accuracy. Both were originally muzzleloaders, but rifles eventually began to use metallic cartridges.
muskets rifles sabers and
Mainly flintlock muskets. There were a few muzzleloading rifles, but many were smoothbore muskets, some shotguns.
