	'''Pistol''': One handed firearms, really shortened versions of the musket (cavalry pistol) and blunderbuss (dragon). There are also much smaller pistols, such as palm pistols and even pistols disguised as cutlery, snuffboxes, and similar everyday items. Pistols have very limited range but do quite a lot of damage. Finally there is the dueling pistol, a small caliber precision pistol slowly gaining popularity.
