Missed Dues pregen-question

[greger]

I am considering running Missed Dues with pregens in a few days, and I am looking through it.

But one of the character stumbles me. It might be my lack of weapon-knowlege, but

at page 79, "Sean 'Hopeful' Doyle" has an increased skill in handgun,
on the weapons list he has a ".22 Short Auto",
but in the possession on the next page he has "12g Shotgun"

I do not know what a ".22 Short Auto" is, so it is a bit confusing, both that I can't seem to match up possessions with what is in the Weapons-table, and not with skill.

I have also seen this in other pregens in other scenarios, where posessions and weapons-list doesn't seem to add up.

Any suggestions?

And as I continued through the list of characters, I see that many of them have the exact same three posessions, which seem odd, as they don't really match their personality, and weapons list.

I think I'll probably just adjust the posessions list to match the weapons.

Haha, and now I see that "Eddie" is 37, referring to his sister "Wendy" as a significant person
And "Wendy" is 25, calling "Eddie" her twin brother.

22 short auto usually refers to a semiautomatic pistol that fires the smallest possible cartridge the 22 short which is about half the size of a 22 long. Unless you work in meat processing and are planning on shooting cattle in the head at point blank range I can’t think of a worse gun for self defense
