Modern portable firearms, whether for military or civilian use, present substantially different features as instruments for striking, wounding and killing compared to those used in the past on account both of their intrinsic characteristics as thermo-chemico-ballistic machines, guaranteeing extra, more easily achievable performance and of the characteristics of the bullets used. The factors responsible for this difference, which consists essentially in an unprecedented wounding capability, are, in the military field, the enormous amount of research which only now is beginning to yield a bare minimum of concrete results in terms of futuristic forms and devastating performance, amongst other things because it is easier to achieve, and, in the "civilian" field, the maniacal search for an unlikely definitive wound, based on the unusual nature of the cartridge and on sophisticated training.
