    For double-barreled guns that use one shotgun barrel and one rifle barrel, see combination gun. Double action revolver: A revolver whose trigger performs two actions, firing the round, and cocking the hammer. Double rifle: A rifle that has two barrels, usually of the same caliber. Like shotguns, they are configured either in over-and-under or ...

  3. Cartridge (firearms) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartridge_(firearms)

    In addition to case shape, rifle cartridges can also be grouped according to the case dimensions of a cartridge, this is usually referring to the cartridge's overall length (COL), which in turn dictates the minimal receiver size and operating space (bolt travel) needed by the action, into either "mini-action", "short-action", "long-action ...

  4. Internal ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_ballistics

    Most rifle cartridges have a high load density with the appropriate powders. Rifle cartridges tend to be bottlenecked, with a wide base narrowing down to a smaller diameter, to hold a light, high-velocity bullet. These cases are designed to hold a large charge of low-density powder, for an even broader pressure curve than a magnum pistol cartridge.

  5. Heeled bullet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heeled_bullet

    In both of these cases, the name of the caliber derives from older heeled-bullet designs, and the name was kept even when the bullet was shrunk to fit inside the case. The .38 S&W cartridge, for example, dates from 1877 and has a nominal outside case diameter of .380 in (9.7 mm), while the inside of the case is .360 in (9.1 mm).

  6. Muzzle flash - Wikipedia

    In both cases, the salts act as catalysts, and interfere with the hydrogen-oxygen combustion to reduce the muzzle flash. The side effects of the alkali salts are a reduction in power, an increase in smoke, and fouling and corrosion of the firearm and nearby equipment (a significant concern with aircraft guns).

  7. Caseless ammunition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caseless_ammunition

    The primary issue is one of extraction. While caseless ammunition eliminates the need to extract a fired case, unfired caseless rounds must be extractable to unload the firearm or to clear a misfire. With metallic cases, this ability is provided by a rim or extractor groove machined into the rear

  9. Bore evacuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_evacuator

    By creating a pressure differential in the barrel after the shell leaves, the bore evacuator causes most of the propellant gases and combustion residues to exit via the muzzle. Thus, when the breech opens for reloading, those gases and residues do not escape into the crew compartment and pose a hazard to the gun crew. [1]
