👉 A horizontal weapon is a type of firearm or ammunition designed to be fired horizontally, typically from a rifle or shotgun. These weapons are characterized by their barrel orientation, allowing the projectile to travel in a straight line when fired horizontally. They are commonly used in military, law enforcement, and hunting contexts due to their versatility and effectiveness in various environments. Horizontal weapons can include rifles like the M16 or the AR-15, and shotguns such as the.30-06 Springfield, which are optimized for short-range, broad-area fire.
