Black powder is not used in modern arms in any fashion with the notable exception of very large cannon. None of the arms listed in the article utilize black powder.

Black powder is the "lowest" explosive that can make it to military charts.

So your contention is that the entire premise of the article is false, because black powder is not used to detonate the primary charges in the weapons listed?
