I have some ideas on why Guns aren't used in the new world. Basicly the gunner class existed in yggdrasil as an alternative to bow using classes i expect they would be balanced to refelct this and thus using a gun would not provide the same advantage it would in real life.

The New world has been shown to run on a mix of video game and real world logic so in theroy guns could be producded if the manufatoring method was known.

However there are some reasons why guns may not be common:

1) the existence of magic and the video game like properties of bows in the new world basicly erases the need to devlop weapons like low teir guns as arguably more effective ranged weapons are alreadly avalable.

2) For guns to exist in the new world they would have had to have eaither been developed by natives which given the technogy level of the new world is unlikly or introduced by a player. But since guns could only be used by the gunner class which was introduced latter in the games run it is likly that even within Yggdrasil there is a limited number of players who would have that class.

3) In the case that guns where introduced by a player they may be treated as relics of the gods and thus it would be extermly difficult for avarage people to aquire one and the production method would be treated as a national or religous secret.Useage of guns would then not spread very far.

4) if guns existed in the new world and where more effective then other ranged weapons in the new world the production and distiribution would be limited by those in political power so as to prevent the weapons being turned on them
