Guns

Guns are Ranged Weapons (weapons that can be fired) that fire Bullets and other Ammunition. Possession of any Bullet-firing Gun (or Musket Balls) fulfills the criteria for the Arms Dealer NPC to appear. The arms dealer always sells the Minishark, the Musket Ball and the Flintlock Pistol and also sells many other items under specific conditions.
