Best Answer

You would have to explain your criteria a little better. There are several ways in which rifles can be categorised. They can be categorised by action, e.g., muzzleloader (which can be further broken down into matchlock, flintlock, percussion cap, etc), lever action, bolt action, self loading (semi or full auto), breech block, etc.
