Aside from a billion format and spellcheck things (as well as a few perils of British english needing to be converted to American, especially with "armory") I'm aware of a few little things that'll need a re-write. For example, Four-letter word: It's not a shotgun welded on top of a shotgun, it's a set of four slamguns and that front "handle" is for the slam.
If anyone spots any other issues let me know. I plan once it's all done and I've cleaned it up to post a final draft in one go, and then either put it in Morty's library as a player book. Because there's been a fair bit of discussion on discord, I'll briefly cover a few things here too:
1. It's super nice people seem to be enjoying it, thanks for the feedback! If you see something that you don't like, let me know.
2. This is not written to be a definitive guide. It's just a not so creative writing excercise to do a bit of lore-stuff, and partly because as someone else rightly pointed out: Another way to get information out there to newbees in an interesting way can't be too bad.
3. I'm not going to do some of the guns. From a character perspective, some of them the characters wouldn't know about, or wouldn't even have access to. Out of character a level of mystery is important. Also frankly some of them -I- Don't know about.
4. I'm not touching melee or grenades or anything else. I'd love to see someone else do it though. Heck, I'd love to see someone write up technobabble stuff for science equipment and the computers.
5.Sourcing for lore has been mostly from the Corporations page of the Wiki (https://wiki.ss13.co/Corporations), flavour descriptions of the guns themselves, and some discord lore dumps from Cogwerks. If you like any particular worldbuilding detail it's probably not me, it's probably Cog or whoever made the guns!
6.If you can do better, I genuinely believe you. If this inspires you to make something better please give it a shot. I would happily throw this all in the bin for some decent worldbuilding.
