Description | This is the smallest auto weapon on the market and produced by Wastch Industries. Slightly smaller than an average sized revolver the Devil's Needle makes for a fair back up weapon and good for those on a budget. The bullets are small a pyramidal shaped (thus the name "needle"). The gun does not do a great deal of damage but may make someone think twice about bothering you. The cylinders are meant to be replaced after each use and have their own spring, allowing a gunfighter to simple replace the cylinder in combat rather than worry about rewinding the spring after each use like many gatling guns. |

Description | Designed and
produce by a mad scientist from England as attempt to
capture the "raw masculinity of the west" the
Dirty Dozen must be specially ordered and has price tag
only real wealthy folks can afford. However, it has few equals in long gunfights since you'll run out of ammo long after your rival does and it's slightly longer range may give you the edge you need. Anyways who doesn't want the biggest pistol in the west? The gun does require two hands to shoot properly, the forward grip allows the person to hold the weapon like a rifle or balance it on their forearm or other suitable support, though many owners put up with the imbalance and like pulling "two egg cartons" out at once. |

Description | Before there where repeating rifles there was the Mormon Rifle. Essentially a musket combined with a revolver style chamber the Mormon rifle, since it was first developed by Granny Smith, is stilled sold in Salt Lake City as cheap multi-shot rifle. Ironically with the proper fetishes Native Braves are turning to the Mormon rifle in hopes of upgrading from older muskets without violating the oath to the old ways too much. Reloading is the worse, one must muzzle load the ball and cap, and than manually turn the chamber to the next and repeat the process. A good Mormon defending his homestead will probably have two or three of these on hand in case a firefight breaks out. |
