I hope he does because your statement, while a generalization, seems
generally true. Sure there are some rifles that are less deadly than
some handguns but real-world forces do not take handguns to known
gunfights.

One genre convention that always amused me is the cowboys riding into
town and terrifying everyone and over-awing the town by firing
handguns from horseback. Against people who could have sheltered in
second-story windows and used rifles and shotguns.

But I have never wanted to roleplay Hollywood. The "Buffy" campaigns I
played in were fun but it's not usually my cuppa.
