I dont know where you got your information but there had been MANY changes to weaponry since our revolution. Here are some the important ones for small arms:
Changed from flintlock to percussion
Mass produced with Interechangeable Parts
Changed from smoothbore to rifled bores which improved accuracy and dramatically increased range.
Added proper sights for aiming.
Breechloading small arms and even repeaters came into widespread use in the civil war.
No, no, don't be sorry. I'm glad to know this information. My information of the weaponry was but an assumption from what I saw.
