Whether you make black powder at home, buy it, or even if you use Pyrodex & 777, its all an important staple in guns, whether you know it or not
Black powder has been used longer than smokeless, but has almost been completely forgotten bar from those that can only use it Even though black powder has still killed more than smokeless, it is only seen as a harmless sporting good & passed away by many fuds from it's true potential
What is the best overall, in regards to both cost and performance, bp revolver? And on that note, what is the optimal caliber for bp revolvers? The general understanding is that here's a max feasible velocity for bp, and so bigger ball = better, but I'm sure the physical size of the frame or the increasing amount of bp you have to carry around makes that debatable
It's generally easier to made cartridge-firing guns, mainly because people are retarded and subconsciously try to blow up their guns and you have to compensate for that, see any shenanigans relating to the Savage 10M smokeless muzzleloading bolt action.

Off the top of my head, I know of the NAA Companion, Ruger Old Army, H&R Huntsman, Diablo 12 Gauge Pistol, Westlake Engineering .38 Special, and various inline percussion rifles and shotguns.

No you nigger, it's not used because it doesn't create the same amounts of pressures, meaning you end up with a squib. Black powder can be extremely dangerous when used properly or improperly, but it's just not that good for modern firearms or uses. Is it better than a group of ground up match heads? Of course it is, but that's because it's refined for a specific purpose (which isn't lighting sticks of wood).
