An inanimate object, made of metal alloys, that has the capability to discharge ammunition consisting of a bullet, casing, powder and primer. Despite common misconceptions, guns, or more properly, firearms, do not have a magical, evil effect on anyone who is fit to use them. (Which happens to be anybody who is sane and does not have homocidal or suicidal tendencies) Also, the false belief that banning firearms under law leads to less crimes is false, as what happens when said firearms are banned is the criminals have all the firearms(as they are criminals, and therefore have no respect for the law), and not the good-doing, law-abiding citizens now have no effective means of protection.

An absurd change that wrecks an ordinarily good thing by taking it to silly excess. Inspired by a video game advertisement that proclaimed, "What's the one thing better than ninjas? NINJAS WITH GUNS!!"
Whiny player: "They should make it so the orc and troll mages can heal."
Game dev: "Bah! Next you'll be asking for elves with guns!"

A weapon that has existed since the 13th Century and has been developing more and more, as well as diversifying ever since.
They come in small, handheld forms known as pistols or handguns; or automatic, repeating-fire, styles known as machine guns; and longer types with stocks and that are designed to be fired from the shoulder: these are known as rifles. The many kinds of guns, the mechanical/technical information of a gun, and so on are WAY too long to list here. For additional information I recommend looking at the other examples below.
