The Prince Who Wasn't Supposed to Survive Chapter 103

This is actually not the first gun made by Sheng Guang and his team.

Previously, they had made a pistol-like shape according to the drawings given by Ethan Yun, but the ignition device used a fuse.

Like lighting a lamp, the lit fuse is used to detonate the gunpowder in the barrel, and the huge pressure of the gunpowder explosion is used to send the bullet in the barrel flying out, thereby launching an attack.

There was nothing wrong with the principle of firearms, but Ethan Yun ultimately rejected this kind of matchlock gun.

Because even if it can fire bullets like a musket, the ignition device is too complicated. If the weather is bad, the matchlock and gunpowder may get wet. Even if there is no bad weather, the burning speed of the matchlock is uncertain, and the gun may be fired before you aim it well. Or you may aim for a long time but the bullet has not been fired.
