      Well, then you should be able to take their gun. But this is TLOU, where there's only about six guns and in TLOU2 they seem to run on thermal clips now :P

      (by which I mean the ammo was more varied in 1, guns magically changed over the past 4 years)

      people have standardized ammo so it's easier to loot their enemies' corpses, of course

      As I've said in the past the ammunition issue is sort of weird, because while you could plausibly have black powder as a semi standardized propellant the bigger issue would be forging bullets and the guns don't act much like black powder weapons.

      I don't really see a good reason why they'd revert to black powder weapons in this setting, they're pretty clearly just using up stores of pre-existing ammunition (of which there's a lot, and which keeps for decades if stored properly)

      It's comparatively easy to manufacture if you have horses, which communities clearly do?

      But then you'd have to make new weapons from scratch to use them, or dig them up from an antiquarian - almost all modern firearms would be useless

      Couldn't you use the black powder with modern cartridges just using the inferior propellent instead of modern propellent? I mean it'd lower muzzle velocity but for at least one gun you're manufacturing non-standard ammo for on the spot anyways.

      The primary reason for the invention of so-called "smokeless powder" isn't the lack of visible smoke but the lack of particulate fouling it leaves behind (the smoke is just the part that comes out of the gun) Smokeless powder is what made the concept of an autoloader feasible

      Replying to @arthur_affect @loudpenitent and

      A black powder weapon can't be semiautomatic or automatic, and it needs to be built to allow the smoke to escape and to let you clean out the chamber after every firing You can tell an old black powder revolver because of the "nipples" on the cylinder for that purpose

      Replying to @arthur_affect @loudpenitent and

      It's a pain in the ass and it would greatly reduce the utility of a firearm over a bow and arrow, especially if stealth is a priority I'm not saying it wouldn't happen but they'd try to avoid it as long as possible most likely
