8een thinking of getting myself a nice flintlock pistol to fully get myself emersed into the whole seafarer thing 8ut MAN a sa8er is just way more fun!

D --> Have you considered a pistol sword

Ehhhhhhhh, they're alright 8ut not the 8est thing in the world. They get quite unwieldy when used in an actual engagement, either you can't aim worth shit with it, or if you can aim with it, it makes for a crappy sword.

D --> I do not think the purpose of a flintlock is ever to act001y hit what you are aiming at

At least with a flintlock you can kind've sneak someone with it, y'know? Element of surprise type of deal when engaged in a sword fight?

D --> I suppose D --> I think the superior option for piracy would of course be a sabre alongside a pistol a%e D --> One can use wooden weapons like flintlocks and a%es sort of akin to a parrying dagger D --> The a%e portion would be useful for breaching doorways D --> And of course it has a pistol if one needs

Interested concept to say the least! I've never seen an axe mixed with a pistol at all just yet. Definitely going to do some digging for this now, sounds novel as fuck.

D --> They are more common than sword pistols I think D --> It is essentially just a straightened flintlock with an a%e head below the barrel

OHHHHHHHH now I know exactly what you speak of. Okay, yeah, those are pretty 8adass, 8ut still the aim is shoddy especially for a pistol 8ecause it makes the front that much heavier. For a mounted musket it'd word gr8 though!
