Talk:List of firearms

Scope
Is there a defined selection criteria for this list? Are these 'notable' firearms? Or every firearm model ever named? Or..? Whatever the case, the article needs to have a lead describing its contents and criteria, per Manual of Style/Stand-alone lists Rezin (talk) 23:13, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

Page length
At the time of writing, this page is 529,638 bytes; that is far too long. What's the best way to split it? Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:33, 1 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Yes, but it would take too long. Daniel231V (talk) 17:57, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * What would? Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 18:32, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

Having had no meaningful response, I've split out the "S" section. I'll do more later. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:32, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

The best splitting I could think of would be giving each letter or a set of letters their own article (depending on the length) and this article be the main hub with the redirect links AtomicAndy8044 22:23, 17 January 2024 (EST)

Where is the name chassepot or fusil gras shot gun?
