Well, I always swears by me cutlass when there is heavy work to be done. Nothing like a good double-handed back hand with a cutlass in the gizzard to end any argument quick smart.
Naturally I never goes anywhere without a dirk in me boot, one down me strides, and another in me girdle. You never knows!
Then, of course a pistol is a fine thing indeed in its place, but they be new-fangled gadgets what don't really take to gettin' seawater and any other muck and filth what you typically experience at sea, and so on in 'em, so I really thinks they be more of a lubber weapon and just as likely to prove unreliable in a tight spot (that's when your cutlass comes into its own! Yaaaaar!).

Cutlass
ARRRRRRR...Knuckles O'Shuffle's cutlass often comes into his own!
The smoke wafted gently in the breeze across the poop deck and all seemed right in the world.

Sorry, but I don't work on my birthday.
I think I might be able to run down a munitions supplier for you though...

Yaaaar! DaveL - hitting a flying target of that nature takes some skill, a dead eye and a sober gunner - perhaps too big a call?
We could dig a pit trap for 'em? Do yez think? We could bait it with some wee urchins? We could also try a little booby trappin'? I'm thinking some explodin' fairy lights, that kind of thing. That's using yer scone.
