    The world (looking at the huge variety of guns with thousands of models that were made before the US even was a thing): Yes, American magic…

      I’ll have you know guns are as American as apple pie!

      Edit: Accidentally wrote “Apple pie” rather than “apple pie.” Don’t want to give them any ideas. I don’t need food that only works with Apple appliances.

          Yes, America invented co-opting things.

          Side note: I found this alongside similar images that seemed less intentionally ironic.

            Looks like an image that could go on to the hood of a pickup truck that surely also is an American thing 😂🤯

                That’s close, but it really belongs painted on the side of a '70s panel van instead of a wizard with a unicorn, with shag carpet, a crushed velvet bed with the frame made of ammo boxes, and bead curtains made of bullets, and living in that van is a slightly more stoned Nicholas Cage from Lord of War who smells like pachouli and expended gun powder.

                  I don’t know what this is, but I like it. You have a gift. I look forward to watching your movies.

          You think you’re pretty clever, don’t you? I happen to know that every word in your comment was posted years ago! Perhaps you’ve read…the dictionary!

              Perhaps that’s how the Germans displaced the citizens of the Holy Roman Empire.

              Maybe if they’d put guns on their guns, they’d have normal people like Americans living there rather than foreigners like Germans.

              (Yes, I’m being incredibly facetious. No, I shouldn’t have to explain it, but also, yes, someone has probably already posted this sincerely on Truth Social.)

      Yes we all know when someone makes s joke about the excess use of guns we all know that are really taking about the Chinese and their rabid gun use.

      I mean, I guess if you want substandard crappy guns like Beretta, Heckler & Koch, Benelli, Browning Arms Company (yes, Browning), SIG Sauer, Springfield Armory, Chiappa, FN Herstal and more. And don’t forget our Filipino friends at Rock Island Armory!

          Browning is now owned by FN Herstal, though the Browning business unit is still headquartered in the US.

          Springfield is privately owned by an American family.

      I would love to be a part of that campaign, especially if that was the only unusual part.

      “Hmm, let me check my inventory…ah, yes, the Stinger missile launcher!”

      “Wait, what?”

        You could very easily do something like that with HERO System or FUDGE.

        Last time I played HERO System our party included both a literal fallen angel and a small walking tank driven by an AI among the player characters.

        Or do some kind of Apocalypse World/Dungeon World hybrid.

          It’s always nice to run across a fellow Hero player. That’s been my main system for a long time. I love being able to GM any genre or strange cross-genre that occurs to me.

          Honestly, yeah, I think I like it because those are the exact kind of antics it might promote. That was hilarious.

    What if they put a nuclear reaction to shoot the bullet. Is that how we get star wars guns?

      I’m no nucular signtist, but I’d be a little reluctant to trigger a reaction of that kind anywhere near my hand.

          SECOND BROTHER: And the Lord spake, saying, “First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.”

          MAYNARD: Amen.

          KNIGHTS: Amen.

          ARTHUR: Right! One… two… five!

          GALAHAD: Three, sir!

          ARTHUR: Three!

      Whoa. I thought that was shells only. That’s almost a reversal of the comic. You ran out of bullets and started firing spells from the gun.

        Banana ballistic newest video. And I think it still had a slug so it was +area and +piercing damage.
