On shooting:
Shooting a gun is very much like deductive reasoning. At least, that's how Koriol imagines it'd be - he's barely held a gun his entire life, and suddenly he finds that he needs it more than ever. Ready, aim, shoot - you'd have to be pretty accurate in both cases.

On schematics:
As the 4th Knobbler, Koriol has gained access to schematics that allow him to forge certain weapons. While the Knoblobber is far from a normal gun, all he really needs to do is change up the size and shape of the barrel and cylinder. The mechanics can't be that different. Now, you have a revolver... hey, who else used revolvers, again? No, not that guy, the other one...

Shortly after returning from his first contract, Kal does his usual repairs to his RV and checks all of his supplies, when he hears a high-pitched whistling that seems to be hurtling towards his location. Just as the whistling gets to its loudest he hears a large crash right outside of his RV, on investigation he finds a Crater with what seems to be a perfectly crafted steel bracelet. Upon putting on the bracelet he hears a voice "hello there!" immediately, Kal looks around, eventually realizing the voice is originating from the bracelet. "hello?" Kal says while tapping the bracelet. Immediately after tapping on the bracelet it unfurls into an amalgamation of flesh and steel, vaguely resembling a handgun. Interested, Kal aims towards a tree and fires, the gun glows green when an energy projectile fires off into the tree leaving a hole slightly bigger than a normal bullet. Interested, Kal begins to fire off more rounds, "14, 15, Damn you don't run out do you?" A mouth suddenly emerges on the side of the gun, "Nope! I dont run out and I can turn into a bracelet so you can hide me! I'm the perfect killing tool! Perfect for somebody like you...".

Looks like an ordinary revolver. Or at least as ordinary as any 150 year old gun could. And yet... there's a reason it's a family heirloom.

And now, it's even library appropriate with a silencer!
