The Repeating Pistol from the WoWRPG is shown below for reference.

Repeating Pistol[edit]

'Description: A repeating pistol, also called a repeater, resembles a flintlock pistol with five barrels arranged in a circle. A clockwork mechanism is incorporated into the barrels, so that when a character fires the pistol, a new barrel rotates into position, saving her the trouble of reloading it.

A repeating pistol deals 3d6 points of damage and has a range increment of 20 feet.

Operation: A repeating pistol functions like a flintlock pistol. It holds five shots, and switching barrels takes little time; you can fire a repeating pistol several times per round if you have a high base attack bonus, the Rapid Shot feat, or a similar ability. Reloading a barrel is a move action.

Fuel: The repeating pistol uses 1 ounce of gunpowder per shot.

Ammunition:' The repeating pistol fires the same pistol balls as flintlock pistols.

Hardness 3; 5 hp; Size Tiny; Weight 7 lb.; MR 2; TS 4, Craft DC 29; Price 2,790 gp.
