For my latest addition of Gud Gear, I will be screaming about the hand cannon we all know and love/hate, The Last Word. The lore behind this weapon is long so I'm going to summarize it, then go ahead with the all-caps ranting.
The Last Word is a hand cannon designed by Tex Mechanica and was owned by a Guardian known as Jaren Ward. Jaren Ward was eventually killed by the X-Guardian known as Dredgen Yor and TLW passed onto Shin Malphur. Shin Malphur later killed Dredgen Yor and passed out of our knowledge from there, along with his fabled hand cannon...at least until it found its way into our hands. TLW has a twin gun called The First Curse and absolutely no relation to Thorn aside from its owners' connections with Dredgen Yor. Famous connection to Shin Malphur's statement "Yours...Not mine" as said to Dredgen Yor during the showdown at Dwindler's Ridge.
Summarized. Now for RANT

And inflict pain
On all who stand in opposition,
You will know fame
As you begin your reclamation!

Can't stop me
When I use The Last Word!

Pretty good, if shorter than your usual efforts. And I'm going to use your term (Gud Gear Posts) if that's OK. One critique, though: you don't kick butt with the Last Word by pulling the trigger, you do it by fanning the hammer, which causes it to fire super fast.
