Does the term "black powder small arms" mean that the bullet and the powder are separate, not parts of a cartridge? - Patrick 02:54 Feb 20, 2003 (UTC)
Nope, it means that a saltpeter based propellant is used rather than newfangled smokeless powders like cordite and other nitrocellulose-nitroglycerin concoctions.--Polyparadigm 00:04, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)

What do you think of replacing the picture of the mortar with someone shooting a black powder rifle?--Cincinnatusidahoensis 04:20, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
The current picture illustrates the point better than someone just shooting a gun. A picture of someone loading such a gun with ball or powder could be good, but might be hard to see at the resolution of a small photo Jrbray 06:10, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
