Questions, questions, questions!

Does the bar ever sell weapons? Are there situations where the bar would?

She's been known to, but often enough she refuses, as she doesn't really like to give out things that can harm people.

The situations that she's been known to involve immediate self defense or for missions outside the bar. And usually only if she likes and trusts the person in question.

(Raphael used to tell new people she wouldn't give out guns or bullets. Uh, this is because he didn't want people asking her for guns or bullets.)

Oh, and PS. If you do want a sword or bladed weapon for your character, there is a forge outback. You'd just have to find Gimli or Will Turner to ask...

Many thanks. We're working on an out-of-Bar mission, and...let's just say that it was about to involve Jedi facing down handguns with only lightsabers, the Force, and a major ammunition shortage.

And a lone handgun, I forgot to add.

How about using some magical/Force-abled shielding? That ought to help.

That has been discussed. There's only one concern, and that's that something might get through in a firefight. Obi-Wan can deflect the bullets; that's been mentioned. It just takes a considerable amount of effort. But believe me, it'll be of some assistance just the same, and they do have the one ranged weapon (a possible ammunition shortage there was a side-element of this at one point).

DO you feel this question is answered, or shall I chime in?

Well, from my recollection, Bar is disinclined to give people things with which they can harm other people or themselves. Exceptions are practice weapons and the case of the bar being under attack in some way. Anyone is free to correct me, as my memory is notoriously bad, but that's a good rule of thumb.
