So... it seems like I've been encountering the Blunderbuss a lot lately. ^^;
Anyway, during a recent Monk run, I encountered not just a Blunderbuss... but also a Rifle and a Holster! =) I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've ever encountered that particular trio of items (with any character) in the same run, so... even though I did encounter "safer" weapons later, I just couldn't resist sticking with the Rifle + Blunderbuss combination. =)
Though speaking of "safer" weapons, I did mostly stick with the Rifle, since, despite the recent practice I've had with the Blunderbuss, I'm still more comfortable with the Rifle than the Blunderbuss. =) Especially with Monk, where accidental knockback into gold is always a concern with either of those two weapons. ^^;
Anyway, playing it slightly safer did pay off, in that I actually ended up with my first ever Rifle + Blunderbuss win! =) Though the run didn't start out too promisingly (got a Glass Spear early, tried for a Glass Spear run... and of course, the Glass Spear shattered! ^^)... I'm pretty happy with how it all turned out. Hope you enjoy!
The mini-bosses and bosses I encountered during this run were:
Zone 1: Green Dragon, Gray Minotaur, Red Dragon, & Death Metal 1.
Zone 2: Gray Direbat, Red Dragon, Gray Direbat, & King Conga 2.
Zone 3: Blue Dragon, Gray Minotaur, Blue Dragon, & Deep Blues 3.
Zone 4: Ogre, The Mommy, Ogre, & Coral Riff 4.

13:07 Is that a Rifle? A Rifle might be fun to have as my secondary weapon. ^_^
