Stocked Firearms

Stocked firearms are a type of hand weapon different from hand firearms in that they are generally larger, more powerful, and more accurate since they are designed to be held with the support of two hands. Only one stocked firearm can be operated at a time and stored in any inventory slot of a human character.
