Some outlier specimens might have non-standard mechanical features in the system. For example, something modelled on a Winchester Model 1907 rifle would be considered a Lever Rifle, but would load from box magazines rather than being tube loading. A double barrelled shotgun with two attached Alofs magazines would occupy 2×4 inventory spaces and have a capacity of 10. A Lancaster Pistol, while considered a revolver, only hold 4 rounds.
