火枪

关于其他用法，请见“火枪 (消歧义)”。

火枪是一种中国古代的火器，最早出现于公元10-12世纪。火枪是所有现代火药类武器的鼻祖[1]，曾在宋金战争期间发挥了巨大作用。它最初是一种附在长柄武器（即“枪”）上的小型烟火式装置，用于在近战开始时获得冲击优势[2]。随着火药的改进，爆炸物的排放量增加，碎片或弹丸等也被添加，使其具有现代火焰喷射器以及霰弹枪组合的一些效果，但射程非常短（约3米或10英尺），而且只有一发子弹（一些设计可击发两次）。至13世纪末期，火枪的枪管已转变为金属材料，以更好地承受爆炸冲击波，并且枪头的尖刺设计被放弃，转而成为仅依靠火药击发完成攻击的纯火器。这些武器日后演变为了最早的手铳[3]。

名称

编辑

根据使用王朝的不同以及构造等若干差异方面，火枪在当时有着包括“突火枪”、“梨花枪”、“火门枪”、“枪砲”等不同的名称。此外，因为现代汉语里的小型火器亦以“枪”一词通称，“火枪”一词在现代汉语里既可以表示步枪时代以前的早期火器（特别是鸟铳等），也可以用于指代后来所有的近现代枪支，在这种场合下一般将前者替称为“火矛枪”以作区分。

设计

编辑
参见：火箭 (古代)

最早出现的火枪由一根通常是竹子的管子组成，里面装有火药和一根慢火柴，绑在长矛或其他长柄武器上。 一旦点燃，火药管就会向矛头方向喷射出一股火焰。 后来将铁丸或陶器碎片等射弹添加到火药中。 发射时，火药装药将弹丸与火焰一起喷射出来[4]。

金属火枪管出现在13世纪中叶左右，并且不再捆绑于枪上，开始独立于长枪本身而使用。独立出来的金属炮管被称为“eruptor”，成为手铳的前身[4]。

在欧洲，以木管制造的火枪版本曾被使用[5]。
