Just a Gun
Just a Gun adds a Flintlock Pistol that fires Bullets, craftable from recipes in the mod's gallery, to the NeoForge game.
What it does
A player who holds the Flintlock Pistol and fires it launches Bullets that can strike living entities such as pigs, creepers, armor stands and paintings. Each hit deals 10 points of damage, which is 5 hearts. Bullets also break through glass, glass panes and any block made of glass, including glass from other mods, because the mod checks the block ID. The mod adds nothing beyond the gun and its ammunition. It is published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1 – 1.21.4, and both client and server need it.
