Improbable Gun

Item

Description Even setting aside its obvious decay, you're fairly sure this pistol shouldn't work. There's no obvious propulsion mechanism, the trigger flops around disconnected from the rest of the gun, and the barrel is too large for standard modern bullets.

All that aside, it seems to work fine and actually puts huge holes in things. So it's hard to complain, really, but it's slow enough you want to make each shot count.

After a few combats you get the following message after every combat:

The action on your gun, strange as it is, is starting to seize up at inopportune moments.

Then eventually - after > 10 combats with the previous message (random chance?)

The strange gun you've been using finally seizes up entirely. Now it's better for bludgeoning people than shooting them.
