Nothing changes. Similiary with farming equipment. You can buy the most fancy and expensive plow for your tractor, but one day you *WILL* put a big rock or a slab of concrete on it, to weight it up.

Breech loaded guns were invented as early as the 14th century, according to Wikipedia and other sources.

Wait, they DID know how to take out the chamber to reload faster? Why the fuck was this never done for handguns?
@viniciusaraujolago22 күн бұрын
Breach loading was known since the 14th century, the problem was making it with consistent quality steel and advanced steel work. Let's say most of those early cannons tended to shatter and transform their crews into grown brief with relative frequency... To ensure that this happened less they would try to make them thicker, it would be impractical to make a handgun that would be reasonably safe with a breach loading system at that time That's why muzzleloaders were favored until the the arrival of the industrial revolution

You can have faster reload with breach-loader or higher pressure and heavier loads for much more firepower. When the target is a stone wall 2-3 meters thick - the choice is obvious

Pretty accurate representation Breechloaders were left behind for good gas pressure and more velocity until efficient breech loaders took back the stafe in the 1850s
