A +7 flaming hand cannon is an endgame worthy weapon for any ranged character that wants to wear a shield. Launching you backwards will let you stay out of melee range for longer than usual and is helpful more often than not, but may move you off of a staircase, out of a corridor, etc. If you've found another decent hand cannon, it's likely you will want to swap between them for different situations.

A +7 hand cannon of flaming is an endgame-worthy weapon for any ranged character that wants to wear a shield. The backblast is often helpful, as it can help avoid being in melee range. But watch out - you could move yourself off stairs, or out of a corridor, and so on. If you've found another decent hand cannon, it's likely you will want to swap between it and Mule, depending on the situation.
