It is true that the halfling bit was added due to some non-core sources. That said, I think we probably should add a weapon that is halfling related. If we do so though, I would like to make sure that it fits well with their racial concept in both a generic sense and for the Pathfinder Chronicles setting.
Thoughts?

I have never been happy with the idea that halfling and gnome weaponry does less damage than anyone else's, regardless of the reasoning behind it.
No one in my campaign has played either one of those races, except for a sorcerer, due to the fact that they do less damage in combat.
