Book 1: The Tub of Happiness — Magic Dream-Land
Concealed-carry aficionados may be wondering where Nick was inconspicously carrying such an obviously large riot gun. And the fact is, I don't know. Tell you what... you ask him.

Transcript

Gunfreak Kid: Please can I see your gun?
Nick: *sigh* Okay.
Nick: See? And if I pull the thingy here, this end goes boom, and then does it again, really fast.
Gunfreak Kid: I'm not stupid, mister. It's obviously a fatbarrel immobilizer riot hose, with a 300 rpm max fire rate. You using riot gum, or goober rounds?
Nick: Goober four-fifties, green mod.
Gunfreak Kid: Cool! Can I try it?
Nick: No.
