How could I implement guns into my fantasy novel?

Doc asked:


I’ve started writing a fantasy novel. With this book, I plan to break almost every fantasy rule in existence by not including elves, dwarves, dragons, wizard schools, dark lords etc. Instead, I’m planning on putting guns in. That doesn’t mean that its going to have knights running around with m16s: it’s only going to have pistols and rifles that have to be reloaded after only being shot once. I want to know how I could implement them into the story, but still keep the overall feel of fantasy. Even though there won’t be magic, It’ll still have monsters, and there’ll still be a quest (ok, I lied earlier. The quest is for something that supposidly has supernatural powers,but there won’t be any wizards or anything like that. Please post your opinions, suggestions, etc.
Dude, I’m trying NOT to put magic stuff into my novel.

Moo!!! asked:


I mean, it’s pretty easy: one person lies down while the other person blows the crap out of them. But what if the person who is getting blown decides to return fire? And how long will it take to reload their gun? Plus, what if the person decides they want to get blown to high heaven!?! I guess you could do it at the same time…

But the real question is: How do you know who wins???
Think about it… ;-)

Do spring airsoft revolvers require the gun to be recocked after every shot?

As an owner of a spring airsoft pistol I understand that I’m required to recock the pistol after every shot.

Are spring airsoft revolvers the same, or are they “semi auto” in the fact that they can be continuously shot over and over without having to be recocked everytime (because of the nature of a revolver)?

Also, are there moon clips available for airsoft revolvers to make reloading easier?
