The long rifle, also known as longrifle, Kentucky rifle, Pennsylvania rifle, or American longrifle, a muzzle-loading firearm used for hunting and warfare, was one of the first commonly-used rifles. The American rifle was characterized by a very long barrel of relatively small caliber, uncommon in European rifles of the period. The long rifle was made popular by German gunsmiths who immigrated to America, bringing with them the technology of rifling from where it originated. The accuracy achieved by the long rifle made it an ideal tool for hunting wildlife for food.

  • Il longrifle, anche noto come Kentucky Rifle (lett. "fucile del Kentucky") è un'arma da fuoco del tipo moschetto sviluppato in Nordamerica nel XVIII secolo dagli armaioli tedeschi immigrati in Virginia e Pennsylvania.. Caratterizzato da una canna molto lunga, la precisione raggiunta dal lungo fucile lo rese uno strumento molto famoso per la caccia alla fauna selvatica, ma anche come arma da guerra. (it)
  • Карамульту́к, реже карамылты́к — длинноствольное фитильное ружьё у азиатских народов (Таджикистан, Казахстан, Узбекистан) примерно XIX — начала XX века. В современном русском языке слово стало просторечным, насмешливым обозначением любого относительно старого ручного стрелкового оружия. (ru)
  • El fusil largo (también conocido como fusil Kentucky) es un tipo de fusil de avancarga empleado por civiles y militares. Se caracteriza por un cañón inusualmente largo, que se cree que era un desarrollo característico de los fusiles norteamericanos y que no era habitual en los fusiles europeos de la época. El fusil largo fue popularizado por armeros alemanes que habían emigrado a la América británica, llevando consigo la tecnología del estriado. La precisión obtenida por el fusil largo hizo que fuese una herramienta ideal para la caza de animales comestibles en las colonias. (es)
