Pillager’s Gun (Unofficial Port)
Pillager's Gun (Unofficial Port) brings firearm combat to pillagers, and this community port makes the mod available on Fabric and NeoForge for newer Minecraft versions.
What it does
The port adds firearm combat to pillagers in the world, so encounters with them involve guns rather than only bows and crossbows. The author states that the project is unofficial and not affiliated with the original creators.
Client and server both need the mod, so every player who joins a server running it must install it too. The port covers Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.4, 1.21.5, 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2. The mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
Updates to the port are tied to a companion firearm mod, and the notes state that version 3.3.3 works with the Tacz 1.21.1 NeoForge port. The mod was first published on 2026-03-28 and last updated on 2026-08-07.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want firearm combat against pillagers on Fabric or NeoForge, especially on versions newer than the original mod supports. Server owners who run a firearms setup with a shared pillager encounter will also need it on every client.
How it compares
Armed Pillagers is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 under All rights reserved, so it is not open source and does not cover the newer versions this port targets. Vic's Point Blank runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 26.1.2 under All rights reserved and is not open source. The unofficial TaCZ 1.21.1 NeoForge Port is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, but it is NeoForge only and targets 1.21.1 alone.
