lol...that's OK, I don't shut up either (except for about 3 hours, starting now), so I can hardly fault you for sharing such a fine quality with me .

You are right that the gun is being immediately discarded, but that also triggers Ammo's usage condition, which is that a gun can be rescued from the discard pile absolutely any time something happens to send it there, so even though it is being discarded immediately, that still qualifies as a time that it is being discarded.

Now, the hero can't throw their gun on the discard pile, then look at their items and say, "Hey, wait, I have Ammo!" No, they have to say, "OK, I have to discard the gun, but I have Ammo, so I will discard Ammo instead."

Unfortunately, "Any time" would seem to trump "immediately."
