How? Nobody would be making you use them. Not to mention they'd be very old fashioned. Pop off one shot at a time, takes half a bloody hour to reload, and is about as accurate as trying to get a rabid badger to urinate into a charging rhinoceros' eye. Not to mention that, like all Dwemer technology, require magicka to work in one way or another. So you'd probably need soul gems to power them. They could use perks from both destruction, and archery skill trees.
