In a discussion about a particular gun modification in the YSDC forums:
"I provide full stats and rules for the Lebman weapons in the upcoming book INVESTIGATOR WEAPONS FOR THE CLASSIC ERA, still in production at Sixtystone Press. Sorry, I don't know when it will be out."
A further posting on the Delta Green Mailing List raised the possiblilty of a sequel for covering modern weapons:
"I am now in the process of writing one for the modern era, as support for CTHULHU NOW, DELTA GREEN, and THE LAUNDRY. Note that it is not endorsed by the latter two and is also not really written specifically for them; however, both settings certainly can profit from the material found within.
INVESTIGATOR WEAPONS 2 is not a mere list of gun stats or even a full-blown catalog of weaponry. While many guns and other weapons are described in considerable detail and provided with full game stats, more than 1/3 of the wordcount actually concern rules clarifications, new rules, campaign advice, and relevant background information, such as: How to model a Mozambique Drill? What to do with the terrible Automatic Fire rules in CALL OF CTHULHU? How do you get a black market gun? How do you carry a concealed weapon? How to treat gunshot wounds? What effects have Glasers and all those other gimmicky rounds? What guns does the FBI, the SEALs, the London Met, or the Vatican Schweizergarde use? And so on."
