Gunpowder was invented by the Chinese in the 9th century.
The first gun was made in 1000 AD in China.
It was made up of bamboo and used gunpowder to fire a spear.
The earliest surviving firearm has...
been found from Otepaa, Estonia and it dates to at least 1396. In the late 14th century, smaller and portable hand-held cannons were developed, creating in effect the first smooth-bore personal firearm.
During the early modern age, these hand-held cannons evolved into the flintlock rifle, then the breech loader and finally the automatic weapon.
The shooter poured loose powder down the barrel. A lead ball projectile is then seated on top of the powder charge by means of a ramrod.
