Early guns, such as muskets and early rifles, tended to be louder than many modern firearms due to their primitive design and the use of black powder, which produces a significant amount of noise when fired. Modern firearms, especially those using smokeless powder, can be engineered for reduced noise through suppressors and better materials that dampen sound. However, the loudness can vary widely among both early and modern firearms based on specific design, ammunition type, and firing conditions. Overall, while early guns may have been perceived as louder, modern advancements allow for a range of sound levels in contemporary firearms.
