Firearms - Special Materials - Magical Properties

[Ehm Sven Nien]

Ok, now I know it will be expensive and I won't be able to afford it for a long time. However, I have some questions about how some of these interact.

1) Double-barreled pistol - Conductive weapon
(Yes it would have to be applied to both barrels like any double weapon.)
You can fire both barrels at the same time.
So can you use up 4 uses of your spell like ability and apply it to each barrel's damage?

2) Pistol - Fire-Forged steel special material
Can I apply heat to the pistol to activate the Fire-Forged ability without setting off the cartridge? If not, what if I load it after the heat has been applied?

3) Pistol - Elysian Bronze special material.
The pistol itself isn't actually touching the target, so would this work? Should I instead make Elysian Bronze ammo?

1.

A given character can use this weapon special ability only once per round (even if she has several conductive weapons)

2. Cartridges do not go off when taking fire damage. The ammunition needs to be crafted from Fire-Forged Steel for it to have effect on your ranged attacks. If the pistol is forged from it, it would only apply when used as a melee weapon.

3. If the pistol is made of it, it only applies on melee attacks. You need to make ammo of it. Note that because you use new ammo each time, you'll never gain the +1 to attack rolls.
