Spellslinger Cast & Fire

[THOMAS HAMLETT]

I have an arcane gun. I wish to CAST a spell on the gun & FIRE it. Isn't this two standard actions?

yes, however you could have tree levels of gun mage and then take 1-3 lvls of magus for spell combat(1 lvl)/spellstrike(2 lvls) if the spell you want is on his spell list if it isn't then 3 levels to do spell combat/spellstrike if you choice broad study ability for the magus arcana class ability.(only if you already have 3 level in other class or classes) although at -2 to hit.

it might be argue you need 6 lvls of magus but evidence doesn't support that idea.

Spell combat specifically requires a one-handed melee weapon. It cannot be used with a firearm.

At 1st level, a magus learns to cast spells and wield his weapons at the same time. This functions much like two-weapon fighting, but the off-hand weapon is a spell that is being cast. To use this ability, the magus must have one hand free (even if the spell being cast does not have somatic components), while wielding a light or one-handed melee weapon in the other hand.
