A gun is a ranged weapon designed to use a shooting tube (gun barrel) to launch typically solid projectiles, but can also project pressurized liquid (e.g. water guns/cannons, spray guns for painting or pressure washing, projected water disruptors, and technically also flamethrowers), gas (e.g. light-gas gun) or even charged particles (e.g. plasma gun). Solid projectiles may be free-flying (as with bullets and artillery shells) or tethered (as with Taser guns, spearguns and harpoon guns). A large-caliber gun is also referred to as a cannon.
The means of projectile propulsion vary according to designs, but are traditionally effected pneumatically by a high gas pressure contained within the barrel tube, produced either through the rapid exothermic combustion of propellants (as with firearms), or by mechanical compression (as with air guns). The high-pressure gas is introduced behind the projectile, pushing and accelerating it down the length of the tube, imparting sufficient launch velocity to sustain its further travel towards the target once the propelling gas ceases acting upon it after it exits the muzzle. Alternatively, new-concept linear motor weapons may employ an electromagnetic field to achieve acceleration, in which case the barrel may be substituted by guide rails (as in railguns) or wrapped with magnetic coils (as in coilguns).

Get the Tamale Gunmug. n. Gun owner who is also a fan of the Girls Frontline franchise of games. Usually found posting GFL content in response to a gun control advocate who has failed to make any compelling argument, going "Fuck your guns!"
"Fuck your guns!"
"Yep, certified gun fucker here, guess I'll have to put up with SPAS-12 and S-ACR pregnant at the same time again."

Get the Queef gunmug. A trump gun is a weaponlike symbol of the North American people that stands as an inalienable right to self-defense, preparation, not planning of an incoming attack, what I believe to be an executive order as it's got his face on it, to the marines to buy a m1911 and prepare, not plan, for incoming.
A warning about covid-19 from the president not to engage but to prepare.
A discreet warning that your right to defend yourself was at threat.
