| Any clan with Auspex will have a slight edge with guns. At level 5, Auspex grants a +3 bonus to Perception, which translates to a +3 bonus to your ranged feat (ranged feat is increased by the Perception attribute and Firearms skill).
So yes, a gun in the hands of a Tremere would be just as effective as a Malkavian. Tremere also get Dominate and Thaumaturgy. With guns, Domination and Thaumaturgy, a Tremere has quite an array of firepower. Thaumaturgy 3 gives you Blood Shield which is a pretty decent defense until it wears off.
It's a little more expensive to get persuasion up to 6 for a Tremere than a Malk. Malks get one point to spend on social attributes at character creation, and Tremere don't. Still, it's a difference of only 4 xp.
