A firearm works by using a controlled explosion in the chamber to propel a projectile, typically a bullet, out of the barrel at high speed. When the trigger is pulled, it releases the firing pin which strikes the primer on the bullet casing, igniting the gunpowder and creating the pressure needed to propel the bullet forward.
