The table used made pasting it here unwieldy, so you get a graphic instead. Look, a gun! How is it?

It does not explicitly say that these firearms are modified to allow fingerless creatures to use them, and the last sentence says fingerless creatures cannot use firearms. Perhaps you could change the wording to explain that these weapons feature a mouth trigger or whatever, and rename them to reinforce that fact. e.g. "Mouth Trigger Pistol"

They don't. You need a specific way to use it, like the fighter path we're making.

Or being a unicorn with the right feat, or a clockwork/steel heart with the right feat.

Well it doesn't say that either. How is it racial equipment if the race you're talking about can't use it?

ponyfinder

Define 'that'? It says they can't use it unless they have something to get around it.

I'm sorry. I just don't follow the logic. It basically says, "Here is a list of stuff for ponies. Ponies can't use guns. Here are some guns." Why?

Because there are ways for any race to actually use them. They are mostly a class-specific weapon (much as they were in pathfinder) unless you happen to have particular feats (much like they were in pathfinder). The feel of the world shouldn't be different, there was not wide-spread use of firearms in Everglow in Pathfinder, there should not suddenly be with 5e.

I checked the 5E rules and found the piece of the puzzle I was missing: 5E doesn't have guns. I thought it was weird you were reprinting something so basic, but I understand now. It's dwarven racial equipment, to fill out 5E's tiny weapon list.

Oh, then I take it back. Why include standard weapons in the racial equipment section?

One: Not part of the SRD. We literally can't refer to them without them existing here. Two: We have more fluff than the DMG ever will about it.

My only question is why does the pistol weigh more than the musket, should that be reversed (10 lbs vs. 3)?
