Iron Chamber

Quickstart

1. Craft or obtain an Iron Chamber pistol and one or more Iron Chamber Magazines.
2. Place the pistol in your hotbar and keep a magazine anywhere in your inventory.
3. Use the pistol once while it is empty to load a magazine. Each magazine loads 20 rounds.
4. Aim at a living target and use the pistol again to fire. Shots travel up to 64 blocks and require a clear line of sight.
5. Continue firing until empty, then use the pistol again with another magazine in your inventory to reload.

You can also find both items in the Combat section of the Creative inventory.

For commands, use:

/give @s iron-chamber-oo2uggdd:iron_chamber_oo2uggdd
/give @s iron-chamber-oo2uggdd:iron_chamber_magazine

Overview

Iron Chamber adds a compact pistol with a 20-round internal chamber and separate magazines. It fires hitscan shots at distant living targets, so there is no projectile to lead or retrieve. The pistol must be reloaded manually by using a magazine from your inventory.

What It Adds

How To Use

Firing

• Hold the Iron Chamber.
• Aim at a living target.
• Use the item to fire.
• Each shot consumes one round.
• The pistol has a short delay between shots, so allow a moment between uses.

A shot can reach targets up to 64 blocks away. Blocks and other obstructions stop the shot, and the closest valid target in the line of fire is hit.

Reloading

• When the pistol is empty, use it while carrying an Iron Chamber Magazine.
• One magazine is consumed and the pistol is loaded with 20 rounds.
• In Creative mode, magazines are not consumed.
• Using an empty pistol without a magazine has no effect.

Reloading occurs when you use the empty pistol; there is no separate reload button.

Crafting And Obtaining

Iron Chamber Magazine

Craft a magazine from iron ingots:

Craft the pistol using iron, redstone, and a stick:

Both items can also be obtained from the Combat Creative inventory tab or with /give commands.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Capacity: 20 rounds per magazine.
• Damage: Each shot deals 6 damage, equal to 3 hearts, to a living target.
• Range: 64 blocks.
• Line of sight: A block between you and the target prevents the shot from reaching it.
• Targeting: The shot selects the closest valid living target along your aim direction.
• Fire delay: The pistol has a brief four-tick cooldown between shots.
• Inventory reload: Magazines are taken from any slot in your inventory, not only the hotbar.
• Stacking: The pistol does not stack; magazines stack up to 16.

Progression And Strategy

• Craft several magazines before exploring or fighting so you can reload without returning to storage.
• Keep the pistol loaded before approaching hostile areas.
• Use distance and cover to take advantage of the pistol’s 64-block range.
• Aim carefully around groups of mobs, since the closest target in the line of fire is hit.
• Carry spare magazines in your inventory; the pistol automatically uses the first available magazine when empty.
