Guns that fire shells typically include artillery pieces, such as howitzers and cannons, which are designed for long-range bombardment. Additionally, tank guns and certain types of naval guns also fire shells, utilizing explosive projectiles for various combat purposes. These guns are distinct from small arms, which fire bullets rather than shells.
