Hum.

Maybe I'll try coming up with super-heavy pistols; major recoil penalties,
still an M damage, but perhaps with a moderate (+3 to +4, roughly 35% I'm
thinking) increase in power, and more capacity to damage the ARMOR (I use the
FoF armor degradation rules).

I'll have to look into it. :-) Or wait for the Cannon Compendium, wich is
reputed to have design-your-own rules for firearms. <g>
