That is a little difficult to answer because range and accuracy aren't a function of just the gun only, but a combination of the gun and cartridge you are firing. In general, it will be a small handgun with a short barrel. Very generally speaking, handguns have a shorter range than rifles, and small, short barrelled handguns have even less range. Most small pocket guns are hard to shoot accurately beyond 10 or 15 yards. Probably overall, it will be a derringer, which is a small gun that has a very short barrel (1 inch or less sometimes).

What firearm has the shortest maximum range?
Difficult to answer- would POSSIBLY be an obsolete firearm known as the Chicago Palm Pistol. This fired a .32 Extra Short cartridge, had a 1 inch barrel, and no sights. It was cupped in the hand, with the barrel protruding between the fingers, and was intended for use at touching distance.
When you know a firearms killing range you can determine what?
First, there is no such term as "killing range" for a firearm. There is a maximum EFFECTIVE range- the greatest distance at which a skilled shooter can RELIABLY hit a given target with that firearm. In a criminal investigation, that information would give you the likely maximum distance the shooter fired from.
List each firearm from the shortest to longest range?
That is not really possible, since your question is too broad to accurately answer. You may be referring to the TYPE of firearm, or the CALIBER of the firearm- and there are thousands of different calibers- or some ranking of weapons in a video game. In GENERAL, the handgun has the shortest useful range, followed by the shotgun, the submachine gun, the rifle and the machine gun- last being the longest range. I have excluded artillery grade weapons from the listing.
What is true about a firearms maximum projectile range?
A firearm's maximum projectile range refers to the farthest distance a projectile can travel when fired at an optimal angle, typically around 30 to 45 degrees. This range depends on several factors including the projectile's velocity, mass, and the effects of gravity and air resistance. Additionally, environmental conditions, such as altitude and wind, can significantly influence the actual distance traveled. It's important to note that the maximum range does not equate to effective range, which is the distance at which a firearm can accurately hit a target.
What can you determine when you know a firearm's killing range?
There is no such thing as a "killing range" for a firearm.

Tell me the shortest mountain range.......Please!
What is the maximum effective range of a M14?
the effective range on any firearm is going to be limited to your ammo, with the m14 its a 30 cal, best way to get an answer is check a current ballistics chart for that round
What factor affects a firearm's maximum projectile range?
The weight and shape of the bullet, the speed at which the bullet leaves the gun, and the degree of tilt of the barrel above the horizontal.
What factor has a significant impact on the firearms maximum range?
The maximum range of a firearm is significantly impacted by the bullet's velocity, which is influenced by the type of gunpowder used, the barrel length, and the bullet's weight and shape. Additionally, environmental factors such as air resistance and wind can affect the bullet's trajectory and distance traveled. The angle of elevation at which the firearm is fired also plays a crucial role in maximizing range. Overall, these factors combine to determine how far a bullet can effectively travel.
Which factor has a significant impact on a firearm's maximum projctile range?
The maximum projectile range of a firearm is significantly impacted by the angle of elevation at which the projectile is launched. An optimal angle, typically around 30 to 45 degrees, maximizes distance due to the balance between vertical and horizontal velocity components. Additionally, factors such as projectile speed, air resistance, and environmental conditions (like wind and altitude) also play crucial roles in determining the effective range.
