One of my characters has need for a full body exoskeletal brace in combat, it is specially designed for combat use by a huntsman  and as such does not lock up even under extremelu heavy use, a brace on a single limb doesn't even need the fancy bits that his does, no mechanized anything.

As for pistols, I would actually suggest going a semi auto and not a revolver for this one. Even with a sylinder mag instead of a standard revolving mechanism you have fairly limited capacity and it may be awkward to reload. @Phantomlink959: I appreciate the advice, but I'm still going with the crutch regardless. It's a forearm crutch that turns to a halberd, a design that I will try to work out any flaws. Weapons don;t always need to make sense, like Velvet's box, or Cinder's bow that materializes.

As for the brace, it will be simple. I did choose a semi automatic pistol too.
