Could the pistols used by members of Bregan D’aerthe in Dragon Heist accurately be called starwheel pistols (as in 1990’s Forgotten Realms Adventures) of Lantanna make, or are they another model inspired by the.. …starwheel? Do they have a name beyond "Lantanese pistol"?
A: Neither. We would call them doglocks (primitive flintlocks), and in Lantan they are known as “hurlshots” (or “crackspits” for the sound they make). The Lantanna make better pistols, but don’t sell them to outlanders.
