MCR: Maynard cap ribbon propellant is used by this gun.N/A: Not applicable.R: Russian, a type of ammunition manufactured by Smith & Wesson.SA: Single-actionSG: Shotgun, damage decreases by one die per range increment.

A rifle or carbine may be converted into a long-barrelled pistol, doing so costs at least 3x the cost of the weapon, halves the range increment, reduces the damage by one die type & count, adds a -2 to hit and the concealability drops 1 point. The rifle o

Cap-and-ball weapons get their name from the way they’re fired. The bullet (ball) and gunpowder are loaded by hand into the gun’s chamber, and a small percussion cap containing mercury fulminate is fitted onto a nipple on the outside of the chamber. When

Also, the person doing the reloading needs to be standing up. With a revolver, it’s usually easier simply to pop out the empty cylinder and replace it with a fully-loaded spare. This takes two actions. Cap-and-ball weapons have a Reliability of 19. Conver

Cap and Ball - Minor Malfunction: A spent cap drops off into the firing mechanism, jamming the gun. It can be cleared by spending a single action. If the weapon is a rifle, the shooter receives a burn from the hot barrel instead and he takes a light wound

Cap and Ball - Major Malfunction: A spent cap drops into the mechanism and is crushed. Removing it requires a Fair (5) tinkerin’, trade: gunsmithin’, or shootin’/Knowledge roll. This takes 1 round. If the weapon is a rifle, the nipple clogs with percussio

Cap and Ball - Catastrophe: The last shot touches off the other chambers, and the weapon explodes. Treat this as an explosion which harms only the firer and does 1d6 damage per unfired chamber. If the weapon is a rifle, a cookoff occurs. A cookoff does 2d

LA: Lever-action. Guns with a lever action require two hands to use, but can use the rifle-spin maneuver (even if they’re not rifles) and can be fanned.

K27

Colt Peacemaker: This was never actually manufactured in our history but is instead an invention of Hollywood. If you want a realistic firearm, take the Colt Frontier instead

K32

Pettengill Army: This odd-looking pistol has no hammer, thus making it easier to conceal than other pistols of similar barrel length.

K43

Colt Dragoon No. 3: This pistol comes with an attachable shoulder butt that converts it into a short rifle. In rifle mode, its Range Increment becomes 15.

K62

LeMat Grapeshot Pistol, Revolver, and Carbine: These unusual weapons mount a 16- gauge scattergun barrel under the pistol (or rifle) barrel. A switch moves the hammer between the two, so only one or the other can be fired in a single action (flicking the switch requires no time). Early models were cap-and-ball, but modern (1876) versions use cartridges.

K80

Volcanic Pistols and Carbines: The Volcanic guns, patented in 1851 and first manufactured in 1854, used metallic-cartridge bullets contained in a tubular magazine beneath the barrel. The action is worked by a lever, similar to that on a Henry or Winchester rifle, and it allows the firer to shoot bullets fast. To use a Volcanic this quickly, a character must have the gunplay Aptitude. Normal Fannin’ rules apply.

K88

Colt Paterson Model 1836: This rifle has a revolving cylinder and is reloaded like a revolver (use speed-load: pistol).

K90

Enfield Rifle Musket: This British-made rifle has been acquired and put into use by both sides in the War Between the States in large numbers. It can fire .577 or .58 ammunition with extreme accuracy over a long range, but is not considered a sniper rifle unless built as a gun of quality.

K94

LeMat Grapeshot Pistol, Revolver, and Carbine: These unusual weapons mount a 16- gauge scattergun barrel under the pistol (or rifle) barrel. A switch moves the hammer between the two, so only one or the other can be fired in a single action (flicking the switch requires no time). Early models were cap-and-ball, but modern (1876) versions use cartridges.

K98

Sharps 1859 Rifle: This high-quality rifle was most often used by Yankee snipers. This rifle uses a percussion cap, but is a breechloader, so it can be loaded and fired at the same rate as a metallic-cartridge rifle and without having to stand up.

K106

US Models 1822, 1842: These smoothbore muskets were still common in the during Civil War, and though difficult to find now, they still crop up occasionally—often in the hands of some old coot, hermit, or war veteran. They use buck and ball ammunition for a devastating effect, but have a Reliability of 18. They reload like black-powder weapons, and use the same Malfunction table.

K108

US Model 1855: The standard version of this rifle uses the Maynard cap system. There is also a shorter-barreled “Harper’s Ferry” model and a model made by Richmond Arms, both of which use cap-and-ball ammunition.

K109

K111

Whitworth: This extremely accurate Britishmade rifle is primarily a Confederate sniper weapon. It is often equipped with a telescopic sight and is effective at extremely long ranges.
