Guns are relatively novel weapons. These relics from another world are currently being analyzed and researched, and while small progress has been made to increase their practicality, they are yet to be safe enough to make them readily available to the public. Guns are believed to hold the potential to overtake the bow and arrow as better long range weapons, but an efficient way to manufacture them must be first established before this can take place. Research facilities are currently naming these weapons after stars from another world.
