The guns made in the 1800s were muzzleloading rifles, usually made by Browning. Browning also made a double barrelled and lever action shotgun, which was a huge success. Revolvers were also becomming popular at the time.

Why was guns in the 1800's not as good of shot as guns today?

The 1800's covers a lot of time- 100 years- and saw guns go from flintlocks in 1800 to machine guns in 1899- that is a LOT of change! The biggest change over the 1800s has been the use of better materials, and the use of Smokeless Powder (which started in the very late 1800s). The self contained cartridge appeared in the mid-1800s, and is still used today. New cartridge designs in the 1900s (and in the 2000s) increased the range, accuracy, and effectiveness of firearms.
