Trust me, I've already thought it over a million times :P Perhaps a crossbow that doubles as some type of gun would be more up your alley (although it'd kind of be pointless to have two long-range weapons without anything for melee, but eh)? How do you plan to overcome the flexibility issue? I'm curious to hear what you have in mind. :P Once I actually sketch out the design, you'll see what I mean (or at least I hope). I don't know any of the technical terms, but basically, the staff will be able to expand and take on the shape of the stave when it's completely uncoiled. The bowstring, while in staff form, retracts inside the pole and is held back by a metal clip.

(It'll probably make more sense once I actually draw it out....)
