DM help / Crafting Magical Firearms

[Icarion]

Hi ! one of my players asked me if it was posible to craft a "flaming dragon pistol"
and if its bonuses to damage stack with "Alchemical Cartridge:dragon breath".
Do you know if he can?
Also,
Does it staks with flaming ammo ?
Can all the ranged weapon special abilities be applied to firearms ?


Thanks in advance !!!

Unless a ranged weapon property specifically states that it doesn't work with firearms, then yes it would work. A Flaming Dragon Pistol should work just fine as far as I can tell. Scatter attack damage is not increased by precision damage or damage boosting feats, but magical bonuses work just fine. A Flaming Dragon Pistol using Dragon's Breath Cartridges would deal 2d6 non-magical fire damage plus 1d6 magical fire damage, with a DC 15 Reflex save to halve that initial 2d6. You also have a much higher chance of a misfire.
