All firearms need: A projectile such as a bullet, gun powder to propel the bullet out of the barrel of the gun, and a cartridge to hold them together. Gun powder only explodes and the force from the explosion propels the bullet out of the barrel, basically. The cartridge is disposed of thereafter. A bullet will not move unless the gunpowder behind it explodes. This is the basic operation of a firearm/rifle.
