If Middle Earth had guns, Gandalf definitely would have carried an AK instead of a stick.

Tolkein fought in WW1, it’s no wonder he romanticized a time when wars were fought with swords. His war was a meat grinder over literal inches. Just waved of bullets and bombs that killed indiscriminately.

So he built a world where combat was about skill and one highly trained and motivated person could beat 100 enemies face to face

The people in WW1 with the highest kill counts were the ones that spent 12 hours a day loading shells into artillery miles from the fighting.

Tape over the slide will impede the action cycling. Also needs a stendo and a switch, to up the DPS of course.

Let’s get a GTA/Harry Potter crossover.

Wizards. Good ol’ Ralph Bakshi.

What the hell I need to watch this

These are magic!

Just watched it last weekend. Amazing style but a little boring and confusing

Oh yes, it’s a trip. I wish I could say it’s good, but well, it’s interesting?

You would not part an old man from his walking stick

Wait untill you see my America enchanted gauntlet.

Yeah this was an actual real thing developed by the OSS during WW2, primarily for assasinations, the Sedgley Glove Gun.

One side is a plunger trigger, the other side is a one shot .38 cal gun.

… It pretty much just is a glove with a gun duct taped to it, it was used in Inglorious Basterds, and also real life, it literally is just punch someone in the head and also shoot them in the head at the same time.

Also, I have actually played in a TTRPG campaign, with this.

Not DnD, but a custom made Delta Green campaign.

Something like this works pretty easily in its standard ruleset, our setting was the 1960s, my character was an OSS->CIA analyst who’d kept this glove gun as a momento from a field agent … Delta Green has a whole sanity mechanic that involves people and things your character holds dear, that tether them to reality… this was one of them, for my character.

EDIT:

American Magic, as explained in 18 seconds, by the TF2 Engineer.

bonk - BANG!

He gotta have something in case he runs out of mana

I mean yes, but also, most (all?) glocks eject to the right, so… thats another problem here, the staff itself is gonna block case ejection, even if the action could cycle, in the depicted configuration.

That gets sampled in the song All Paladins Are Bastards

I got a Potion of Resist Arrest!
