A pistol with "no additional shot nor powder", "a compass that doesn't 
point north" and a sword. And not forgetting that hat. These are Captin 
Jack Sparrow's effects. And a telescope is not amoung them.

Like my dad suggested, the pistol ought to be useful for lighting things 
though.

He has a small one, it is shown in the second instalment. In the third
instalment he appears to have acquired a vaster one, to out-machismo the other
captain. Savvy?

Indeed, it's so traditional, it's used in old-time pistols.
