How to Craft and Assemble Your First Firearm
Gather Intermediate Components
Before you can build any gun, you'll need to craft the intermediate parts. Start by making Metal Tubes and Auto Loader Contraptions using your crafting table. These are essential building blocks for all firearms in the mod. Gather the base materials from your regular mining and crafting.
Choose Your Weapon and Craft It
Decide which firearm suits your playstyle:
- Auto Gun: Best for sustained fire against groups
Rifle: High damage for precision shots
Revolver: Balanced power with slower reload
Shotgun: Close-range devastation
Once you've chosen, use your crafting table to assemble the complete firearm along with its matching ammunition. Each weapon uses different ammunition types, so craft the correct rounds for your gun.
Test Your Weapon
Head out into the world and test your new firearm. Hold Shift while firing to reduce recoil by 50%, which helps with accuracy. This is especially useful when learning how each weapon handles. Practice in a safe area before engaging hostile mobs or players.
