The dwarven pelletbow is a crossbowlike weapon that is loaded with and fires sling bullets rather than bolts. A dwarven light pelletbow can be reloaded as a Free Action (allowing characters to attack with it multiple times in a round). Normally a pelletbow takes two hands to operate, but you can shoot (but not load) a pelletbow with one hand by taking a –2 penalty on attack rolls. You can shoot one pelletbow with each hand, but you take a penalty on attack rolls for attacking with two weapons (treating the light pelletbow as a light weapon).

Feats and special abilities that don’t involve Proficiency (that don’t depend on dealing piercing damage or firing bolts) that apply to a Light Crossbow also apply to a dwarven light pelletbow.
