Second Wind
You have a limited well of stamina that you can draw on to protect yourself from harm. On your turn, you can use a bonus action to regain hit points equal to 1d10 + your Gunslinger level.
Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

Starting at 2nd level, you can push yourself beyond your normal limits for a moment. On your turn, you can take one additional action.
Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again. Starting at 17th level, you can use it twice before a rest, but only once on the same turn.
Way of the Gun
At 3rd level, you choose an archetype that you strive to emulate in your combat styles and techniques. The archetype you choose grants you features at 3rd level and again at 7th, 10th, 15th, and 18th level.
Grit
You have a number of grit points equal to your proficiency bonus.
You regain all expended grit when you finish a short or long rest.
Whenever you score a critical hit with a firearm, regain 1 grit. Whenever you reduce a significant hostile creature to 0 hit points with a firearm, you may regain 1 grit, at the DM's discretion..
Saving Throws
Some of your trick shots require your targets to make a saving throw to resist the trick shot’s effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as follows:
Trick shot save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity modifier
Ability Score Improvement

Beginning at 9th level, you can reroll a saving throw that you fail. If you do so, you must use the new roll, and you can't use this feature again until you finish a long rest.
