=====Pistol=====
: A pistol is a mechanical device that fires projectiles at high velocity, using a propellant such as gun powder or compressed air that is generally used one handed..

: '''Light'''

:: Other names: Derringer

:: Light pistol are small and easily concealable. You get a +2 bonus on Sleight of Hand checks made to conceal a light pistol on your body (see the Sleight of Hand skill). Because light pistol cause less damage than medium pistol and are mostly single shot, it is rarely used as a main weapon, but make it perfect to surprise an opponent.

: '''Medium'''

:: Other names: Revolver

:: Medium pistol are semi-automatic pistol.

: '''Heavy'''

:: Other names: Submachine gun

:: Heavy pistols are automatic weapon that can fire a lot of bullets in a very short time. They are normally used with two-handed, but you can use them with only one end but suffer a -4 penalty.

: '''Construct'''

: '''Flintlock'''

:: The first type of firearms used a simple spark made from a flint to ignite gunpowder and shoot bullet. You must put from the nose of the firearms gunpowder and ammo making this type of firearm very long to reload.

: '''Cartridge'''

:: Cartridge firearms combine the cap, the charge and the bullet itself into a single metal cartridge easily loaded into the weapon. While this type of firearm contains a few ammos, they still need to be put one by one if the firearm.

: '''Magazine'''

:: Firearms that used magazine to hold a pack of ammo that can be recharged as a group instead of one by one.

: '''Magnetic'''

:: Gunpowder is not used anymore in those firearms. A magnetic pulse pushes the bullet very fast outside of the gun.

: '''Gravity'''

:: This firearm used a gravity induction engine to propel a bullet.

: '''Laser'''

:: Laser weapons come in many shapes and sizes, from pistols to rifles and other long arms. Many different forms of technology can be used to create laser weapons, resulting in many different forms of lasers; short, self-contained beams are as common as longer, solid stream lasers, while others produce spherical balls of energy and others fire laser rings.

: '''Plasma'''

:: Plasma occurs when gases become electrically charged after losing electrons. Plasma weapons condense this electrically charged gas into a destructive force that can eat through solid objects and cause severe damage. Like laser weapons, plasma weapons come in many varieties. Most plasma weapons generate their destructive ammunition by superheating gasses held inside specialized power packs and then compressing those gasses into a focused plasma round.

: '''Singularity'''

:: Resembling a laser rifle, a disintegrator fires a micro-singularity that obliterates the target's molecular structure on impact.

: '''Battery'''

:: Battery contains energy used by weapons. Once empty, the battery must be replaced and can be recharge later.

: '''Induction'''

:: Induction weapon create their own energy as they need. They do not need to replace the energy source for the weapon.
