I am reading through the books, and I was hoping you might indulge me with a few firearm questions.
1) In Firing Squad (pg. 17), the Colt Agent Special says it "fires heavy pistol rounds". Does this mean a character with a Colt Agent Special (Light Pistol), Colt Gov 2076/Manhunter (Heavy Pistol), and the Cobra TZ-100 series (Submachine gun) need only buy Heavy Pistol ammo?
2) It doesn't look like Ares has any submachine guns, and few entries in the other categories. Is there more weapons in other books? Colt and H&K appear to have better series than Ares (the premier weapons manufacturer).
3) The Ares Light Fire 70 and 75 are exactly the same (except for smartlink in the 75), especially in availability (both are 3L). Previously, the 70 was marketed as a civilian weapon and the 75 was for pro security and governments. Why is the 75 not illegal? In contrast, why isn't the 70 Avail 1 or 2? At the moment, they are both have the same availability (and damage and modes and attack ratings and ammo).
4) It is noted in the Colt Gov't/Manhunter description that people are shying away from electronic firing. Shouldn't we have more options without wireless capability due to this concern?
5) Where are the Carbines? There are only 2 in Firing Squad, but there is a large side bar about them.
6) Does Firing Squad have about the same amount of weapons and gear as Run & Gun had?
Thank you all for entertaining my questions!
