We had a disagreement over use of ammo cards on the zip gun card last
game session. One side said it can't be used since there is no equipment
symbol on the zip gun, while the other side said "the card says "Weapon,
Gun" so the ammo card works on it." Who is correct? A netrep response
on this one would be nice since the arguement was rather heated and a
definitave answer would settle it completely. Thanks for any help.

So they're under the impression that you can use ammo cards on a Zip Gun.
(Where on the ammo card does it say it must be used on equipment cards only?
I thought it said "Gun" not "Equipment".)

I'm not a netrep; but I'll post and let the netrep clarify if necessary.
The Zip Gun is a gun and can use ammo. It acts as a piece of equipment
in all ways (including use of the Arms Dealer or Al's Army Apparatus,
use of Vast Wealth, and trading weapons among minions) except that a minion
does not take an "Equip" action to obtain it.

I happen to like dragonbreath rounds in my zip gun, and nobody ever
complained about it *grin*

Correct, except that it might just be that it doesn't apply to equip actions
at all. That is, you probably can't use an equip action to move it from
one minion to another. I'll ask about that.
