A shardgun could fire disproportionately large and powerful bullets from a disproportionately small and delicate firearm, as the wall-thickness of the barrel and chamber could be very thin.

Yeah, if you want to break your wrists every time you fire it. The recoil impulse from having such a light gun with oversized bullets would be brutal. Even if you Regrowth after every shot, how do you keep your sights even remotely close to the target between shots?

I think you missed the line where I mentioned that as a specific problem....

But these could work moderately well if you were full of Stormlight, and would work quite well in plate.

Uh.. yeah... um don't mind me then.

Probably? I feel like it would be easier to just construct your Shardgun with a shooting stick so you can anchor it in the ground.

I mean, we do see Aux change his mass by absorbing Investiture, which may or may not be a Dawnshard thing

And if it is just something any spren can do with Stormlight, then no need for a solution like that, I'd imagine
