The Chinese are credited with the invention of the musket. The musket was a later form of a weapon known as the hand cannon.
The rifled musket was invented and sold to the US Army in 1861. The rifle ball was invented by French inventor Claude-Ã?tienne Minie.
The musket was used by foot soldiers in both the Revolutionary and Civil Wars.
Modern weapons were invented to keep up with other updated weapons. Because you ain't gonna use a musket on a tank are you? The most ingenies invention in possibly the aircraft. Fast (sometimes) manuvarable (sometimes) powerful (most the time) and strong (sometimes).
The lock, the stock, and the barrel. The lock is the mechanism with hammer, trigger, pan, and other parts to fire the musket. The stock is the wooden furniture which allows the operator to hold and aim the musket. The barrel is the tube through which the projectile is fired, exactly like a modern weapon, except that musket barrels were smooth bored like a shotgun instead of rifled.

The musket was not invented by a single person- it developed gradually over many years, and no one person is credited with its creation.
Whitney did not invent the musket, which was brought into India in 1519. Whitney invented mass production and first used it in the rifle industry to build muskets.
Eli Whitney
Interchangeable parts for the musket were invented in the United States during the late 18th century, around 1798 by Eli Whitney. This innovative method allowed for the mass production of muskets and significantly improved their efficiency and repairability.
