Rob's Guns
by robussss
Rob's Guns is a Forge equipment mod that adds five vanilla-styled firearms and a single ammunition type to Minecraft 1.20.1.
What it does
The guns take gunpowder and round balls as ammunition, and the flame-enchanted variants draw on gunpowder as well. A one-handed quick-loading gun deals moderate damage, while a two-handed reliable gun deals heavier damage per shot. Two scoped guns, a musket and a sniper-style rifle, zoom when the player holds right click and fire on release, and the musket is more accurate.
The set also includes a blunderbuss that fires a flurry of pellets with better reliability at close range, and a one-handed Dragon's Breath shotgun that releases a spread of flaming shots. The mod requires Geckolib on Forge. The server and every player need the mod installed. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the license is the MIT License.
Key features
Five vanilla-styled guns

Scoped firing
Scoped guns zoom while right click is held and fire when the button is released.

Early-stage build
The author describes the first release as somewhat buggy, so expect rough edges.
