Rifled?[edit]

The article is deficient in describing the gun since it neglects to say if the barrel was rifled or not. Dismalscholar (talk) 17:25, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Smoothbore guns were discarded in the 1880s. The default has been rifled guns for a very, very long time.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 03:02, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
