Lady Rarity Pony 4,894 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 So when I was watching the Pet Song I heard Rainbow Dash compare her dream pet to a bullet. This made me think, how would she know of bullets if they don't have some sort of firearms? Not to mention they also have cannons. What do you think? Firearms in Equestria...yes or no?

Skullbuster 1,906 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 (edited) That would be bad ass if there were guns, in fact, I'd like to see an episode that deals with equestrias millitary Probably won't happen though...

HomuraBL 852 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 (edited) Bullet can also refer to things shot out of slingshots...even though it really seems unlikely that that is what see is referring to. I'm pretty sure if they did, they wouldn't have many. Edited December 4, 2011 by RaccoonBL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallow 1,137 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 (edited) Also, Rainbow named her pet "Tank" in that same episode so I would assume that tanks do rxist and that there are indeed firearms.I just find it hard to imagine a pony driving a tank though. It just doesn't really fit with the pony universe. I mean, really how can they have tanks when they don't even have electric lights Not to mention that they're essentially tools designed to kill other ponies, which makes it somewhat disturbing... :S Edited December 4, 2011 by Marshmallow "There was me, that is Pinkie, and my three droogs, that is Rarity, Rainbow, and Fluttershy, and we sat in the Ponyville Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening."

When the CMCs were singing on stage there were electrical lights and even an electrical fan, so the ponies definitely have access to electricity to power a vehicle.

But Rainbow Dash says "You can't stop that little guy. He's like a... tank!" Because of this, I'm fairly certain that she was referring to the military vehicle and not to a fuel tank 1 "There was me, that is Pinkie, and my three droogs, that is Rarity, Rainbow, and Fluttershy, and we sat in the Ponyville Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening."

Skullbuster 1,906 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 Plus, the ponies have a dam, which means they probably have a hydroelectric plant My Let's Play channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCy14-AEEHdfj5QQAlYtB1_A Need a guest Rapper on a song? talk to me!: http://mlpforums.com/topic/103097-guest-rapper-for-you/ NEW SONG: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finesthour 7,289 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 I do not believe there are guns in Equestria. If there are, do you not think that Celestia's royal guards would use them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could just be tradition, like how british red guards (not sure about the name) use outdated firearms. I am, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof, and incapable of error.

BlazingDawn 52 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 They don't need guns they have magic. Add to the list: Do cannons count as firearms? "Hell is full of good meanings, but heaven is full of good works" I would love to learn how to shuffle.

cuteycindyhoney 13,337 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 Cannon do count as firearms. (cannon is both singular and plural) Equestria obviously does know how to harness rapidly expanding gases to propel a projectile. It would be only natural to scale it down into a hoof held unit for ground troops. Perhaps such developments were halted when Luna and Celestia rose to power. Maybe they and the other Unicorns are the true saviors of Equestria, and put an end to violent conflict in their world by the magical suppression of dangerous technologies. The party cannon could be just a holdover from olden pony times, put into a much happier use. Thank you Sparklefan1234!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crispy 5,565 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 I mean, really how can they have tanks when they don't even have electric lights ...Tank has a helicopter. Ponies make advancements in technology all bass-ackwards. As for firearms, they're canon. :40 seconds in on Cutie Mark Chronicles, Scootaloo asks where she can get a cannon at this hour.

Fghik 360 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 Well... Considering Magic could project a force-field... And if I learned anything from Jackie Chan Adventures: "Magic must defeat Magic! (smak)" Guns really wouldn't help much. If everypony is friends with everypony (lots of friendship); and friendship == magic... Then that would mean the magic of friendship could project magic force-fields. Bullets/Guns wouldn't be very effective. Imagine: 1337Tr0LL47: I iz gonna pwn ur socks nao! *hold up gun* Twilight Sparkle: *magic-hack* 1337Tr0LL47: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!! But what do I know?

Lady Rarity Pony 4,894 December 4, 2011 Author Share December 4, 2011 (edited) That pic is awesome xD How would they shoot guns anyway? Bite the trigger?

Crispy 5,565 December 4, 2011 Share December 4, 2011 They could easily make the handhoofguard large enough to accommodate their hoofs. Even with an enlarged trigger guard, using an entire appendage to fire would make guns an accuracy nightmare. Battle saddles would work best. Exceptions include unicorns, griffons and young dragons. (Because who needs a gun when you're a fully grown death machine of a dragon?)
