==Uses== The hand cannon was possibly the oldest portable firearm to be used in battle. Although inaccurate and slow to reload, it was more powerful than any other weapon of its time, piercing even plate armor. It also had a spike on if so it could be used in melee combat (being roughly the medieval equivalent of a bayonet). In Europe, it was used until the 1520's, when more advanced matchlock [[Arquebus]] firearms replaced it. After the fall of the Mongolian Empire, the hand cannon evolved into the [[3-Barrel Pole Cannon]] to increase the rate of fire.
