What means
It was one of the computer’s ready-made screen graphics. The Sharp MZ-700, released in 1982, built pictures from character cells: each tile in its text grid held a preset shape. Its second table added 256 characters for screen images, including this rifle graphic. Those extra shapes were not keyboard entries; a BASIC program could display one with POKE, a command that writes a value to memory.

Questions people ask
1Why does show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
