Hate to say it, but I don't think Casey will be any match against Purple Dragons with hand-guns....heck, I'm not sure the Turtles would win either.

They're pushing it with all the violence in this series, the last thing they need is to add more fuel to the fire. They don't want to give the censors anything to hold against them, so I doubt we'll ever see a gun. And the Turtles have won against hand guns, and even more powerful firearms.

Modern weapons aren't all they're cracked up to be. I love looking at weapons, swords, guns, etc. and when push comes to shove, a hockey stick can do as much, if not more damage, plus you probably won't get thrown in jail for just carrying one around like you would a "real weapon".
