Dagger Pistols + Greater Transformative

[DiceQGM]

So I've been wondering how this works.

Greater Transformative allows you to turn a weapon into another weapon. However, with double weapons, you lose the use of the second half of the weapon.

However, Dagger Pistols are only counted as double weapons for the purposes of masterworking/enchanting (but they're explicitly not double weapons).

Does this mean you can turn the dagger part into, say, a scythe, but the pistol is still active? Since it's not a double weapon and all. Or if you transform the pistol into a rifle, would the dagger be active, etc.

Furthermore, if it was doable to make gun-chucks or gun-swords, would there be any penalties to shooting?

A clarification would be great!

Thanks!

If the spell turns a weapon into another weapon, or half of a double weapon into another weapon and the other half into nothing...

...and dagger pistols are not double weapons...

...then dagger pistols turn into another weapon.

The fact that they're not double weapons doesn't mean they get to keep some of their features when turning into another weapon, they're just treated as regular weapons. So turning your dagger pistol into a scythe would turn the dagger and the pistol into a scythe, all together.
