I believe rifles were coming into use around that time, and Americans had them. British hated us for picking off officers, even though their own rifles were used against Napoleon's officers in years to come. You should check out Morgan's light infantry. 10 companies of rifles, who did a lot of sniping for us. But yes, the set-piece battles were with massed muskets. More to the point, the rifles and muskets used by patriots in the Revolutionary war were military grade. No doubt about it. And our rifles were better than what the British were using. They learned about rifles from fighting us.
