    I think its completely random what the shopkeepers carry. I've been just playing around with a few different characters and have one thats a Lv12 Gnome tech thats purchased the Flamethrower, Grenadelauncher, Acidgun and an assortment of grenades. I think all those came from the Inventor+Herbalist shop in Tarant. And all useless at this point. Wouldn't do much good to purchase a bunch tech manuals if you can't make or find any ammo for them.

    The other character I've been playing with a Dwarf tech bought the schematic for the Mechanized Gun the first day he hit Tarant from the Gun store. Can't do anything with the schematic though as it has a complexity of 85 in Gunsmithing.

    Seems the stores stocks update everyday so hit the advance time til morning and try for a week and see what shows up.

    I know the captain of the guard in the Thorn Dogg (or whatever) quest in Tarant has a machinegun. :smile:

    I believe its one of the captain's man, just steaql it from him, there a long ranged or is it a high velocity pistol with them too.

    The broch gun(whatever!) is a flamethrower pistol, so if u keep the ancient gun chassis from one of the quests in isle of despair plus the schematic(of course) u can have a mini-falmethrower. Not worth it though, u have to carry a lot of fuel for it.. :smile:

    OK got it built it. Not too impressed with it.

    Mechanized Gun:

    Min Strength: 10
    Damage: 1-30
    Fatigue: 1-5
    Range: 15
    Speed: 20(25 with Firearms Apprentice)
    Bullets: 6
    Weight: 120 stone

    Damage is too erratic for my tastes. Even 6-30 would be a major improvement. Also does hardly any fatigue damage which isn't good. Eats a lot of ammo for no guarantee of doing anymore damage than any other gun. No "to hit" bonus, hey every bit helps. Only good thing I can say is that in turn-based it only takes 1 AP to fire.

    I'm back to using the Fine Revolver and overall I get better results from it without going bankrupt buying ammo.

    Oh yeah no special animations or sounds. Its just a fast firing rifle. Seems to be a semi-automatic rather than a machinegun.

    Anyone got any STEN gun schematics laying around?

    The Mechanized Gun is the best thing that ever happend. I have a firearms Mastery and maxed all stats that have to do with firearms. The Mechanized Gun rocks, get the schematic for bullets or get a high gambling skill and gamble for bullets. Also a bandit in the basement of the Sobbing Onion has a Repeater Rifle
