Firearm

Guns are the weapons used by the Tau'ri. They launch small projectiles using a powder made of charcoal, sulfur, and potasium nitrate. While primite when compared to Ancient, Asgard, Goa'uld, and Wraith weapons, they are more than capable of piercing the armor worn by Jaffa and of killing Wraith and Goa'uld hosts. Interestingly, Guns are capable of permanantly damaging insect-form Replicators. While the blocks may come back together after one shot, several shots will destroy them.
