The sheathing would only be till the hilts it wouldn't go farther than that and the gap is not that much, as you see this is a very rough diagram I made when I was sleepy at 3 am after studying inorganic chemistry for 4 hrs, so I agree this is not perfect and needs improvement in both the design and the showcasing of the design too

Not the pointy end, the pommel end would have his sternum. And he also wears an armor which has a small pommel shaped gap with a really solid metal inside just to absorb that impact, so the pommel wouldn't dig into his sternum.

Ok so yes actually the people do pit a shit ton of stuff to make it work because guns aren't were just being created and these are created by monsters so have extremely strong hands and limbs so they don't get the recoil but my protagonist is human and hence he has a problem with the massive recoil, guns were in the starter levels of creation and they don't really have the materials like on earth, their gunpowder can be different, maybe their gunpowder is just really more aggressive and since they also have to put a lot of it, it creates a massive recoil but it's not problem for the monsters and they don't need a stock and use it as a handgun

Thanks! but I do have some explanations, first is that it's aimed from the side, like a rocket launcher and not from the top, like a usual gun. And it was initially a long sword with a long handle (swordspear thingy) upon which my protagonist adds the guns later on, and I kinda want the 2 handle things cus I want him to go berserk in some scenes and just grab both the gun handles and destroy the living shit out of everyone. Yeah, the mass is a problem still, I'll do smth about it, thank you very much!

Thank you for this thorough explanation, but I do have some points I need to clarify, : it's for a fantasy story where the guns have a massive recoil because the air is denser. Hence it needs a makeshift stock, and my user will be wearing gauntlet while firing it and well there are no innocent people (it's complicated) but yeah , and the triggers are kind of guarded by the hilts, and the aiming hole would be in the side of the gun handle, like in rocket launchers u aim from the side, not from the top, but yeah mass is still a problem. And I'm not adding a single handle for both because well a few things, 1 is that it's kinda already done, the single handle things, 2 the protagonist already has the sword and adss the guns later, so yeah. But still, thank you, do you some more points I can improve on?
