Firearms of Japan
Firearms were introduced to Japan in the 13th century, but saw little use. European firearms were introduced in 1543,〔(''Tanegashima: the arrival of Europe in Japan'', Olof G. Lidin, Nordic Institute of Asian Studies, NIAS Press, 2002 P.1-14 )〕 and intense development followed, with strong local manufacture during the period of conflicts of the late 16th century. Japan then almost completely abandoned the further development and military use of firearms during a period of seclusion known as ''sakoku''. The usage of firearms in Japan would start again after 1854 with the resumption of contacts with the West and the accumulation of conflicts from that period.
== Teppo ==
Due to its proximity with China, Japan had long been familiar with gunpowder weaponry. Firearms seem to have first appeared in Japan around 1270, as primitive metal tubes invented in China and called ''teppō'' (鉄砲 lit. "iron cannon") seem to have been introduced in Japan as well.〔Perrin p.93〕
These weapons were very basic, as they had no trigger or sights, and could not bear comparison with the more advanced European weapons which were introduced in Japan more than 250 years later.〔
