Can bombs gain weapon runes?

Question

Bombs are classified as martial thrown weapons. Neither the fundamental nor property runes state that the weapon cannot be consumable.

Is there anything stopping me from getting Thrower's Bandolier, loading it out with 20 bombs each day and having them gain benefits of all the runes applied to the bandolier whenever drawn?

Would +3 major striking Thrower's Bandolier essentially turn lesser Alchemist Fire into a major one, with the exception of splash and persistent damage?

Answer 1

No

Runes must be etched onto permanent items, such as armor, weapons, or runestones to grant their benefit.

Bombs, while weapons, are not permanent items. They are consumables. See Table 6–4: Treasure by level in Advanced Player's Guide. Bombs are listed under "Consumables" and not under "Permanent Items" which appear in the same table.
