Rock throwing is the application of a semi-sophisticated kinetic weapon.
Add a stick to that thrown rock so you could throw it better, and call it a javelin. And a more sophisticated kinetic weapon.
Add more power by adding another stick with a cord, call it an arrow, and even more sophistication in your kinetic weapon. . .
Take your rock and put it in a barrel like device and put an explosion behind it and you’ve really got a much more sophisticated kinetic weapon.
Take away? Guns are just more efficient rock throwing kinetic weapons!
Yea, watch out. They just may put you out of business Swordmaker.

So where does solid rocket fuel fit into this equation?
