I believe I might have found a possible errata, or at least something that doesn't make a lot of sense.
Pistol, double-barreled 1d8dmg ×4 20 ft. range 1–2 (5 ft.) misfire
Musket, double-barreled 1d12dmg ×4 10 ft. range 1–3 (5 ft.) misfire
Ok, so simple question... why does the double-barreled pistol keep the same exact range as a normal pistol when the double-barreled musket suddenly loses 30 feet.
This gives it half the range of the pistol (normal or double-barreled).
I thought that the drawback to using a double-barreled weapon was increased misfire chance, which both get.
Plus, they also get -4 to attack if they fire both barrels.
So why the discrepancy?
It doesn't seem to make any logical sense to me that a musket would have less range than a pistol when you added a second barrel.
Typo or is there some actual balance reason for this?
Thanks

Post this in the errata thread
Oops, yeah. I should do that... wasn't thinking about that thread when I posted this.
