So I had this idea of Blending together gunslinger and monk. Clearly though, you can't flurry of blows with a gun. But you can flurry of styles..

However one slight issue I've ran into. I don't know what styles to blend together. The main style is of course going to be Empty Quiver Style, as it allows all my pistols to be treated at light maces.

But what to blend with it?

How to deal with the fact that you can't reload the pistols with only two hands?

I've thought about mixing in two levels of Juggler Bard (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBQ2mflwnEU) so I can juggle my firearms and reload them.

How about more hands? Be a Kasatha and you can reload your pistols with hands 3 and 4. Their stat bonuses are also ideal for Monk, Cleric, and Gunslinger.

Alternatively, be a race with a prehensile tail/tongue, like a Vanara, Grippli, or a Tiefling variant that gets a Wis bonus.

I'm not sure what style combos best with EQ though.

You can use Gun Twirling to put away a gun as a free action before reloading, but it requires quite a few feats that you might not be able to fit in to your build.

If third party is allowed, Gunsmoke Mystic is basically what you want in a single class. It's in the Path of War Expanded book.

hm...

Ok, first, we have to check some facts and RAW ruling. Empty Quiver is a bit unambiguous whether Weapon Focus and Gun Training will still work when using it as a close combat weapon.

(Going with Revolver) If yes, IŽd propose Gunslinger//(U)Monk with Empty Quiver, Ascetic Style feat chains and Weapon Style Mastery to blend them. Add Weapon Trick: Free Hand Maneuver, get Blowout Shot to disengage and enabling flying kicks.

Or the actual Grammaton Archetype (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/psionics-unleashed/classes/cryptic/archetypes/dreamscarred-press/grammaton) for the Cryptic.
