Hi,
Suggested names seem to be endless. I think they should stay away from the separate names for guns and Xbows (far too GW). A couple of suggestions I haven't seen so far:

Longchukkas
Farshootas

or for the non-PC amongst us:

Shortshootas

Keep on suggesting.

Dwarven Hailstormers-

The mountains surrounding the dwarven strongholds are bleak, miserable places where the wind whips men off mountain paths and the storms rip the rock off jagged outcroppings. It is near the summits of these mountains where these dwarves train vigorously. They brave the freezing temperatures and blaring sunlight, shooting at targets while running, diving, and fighting. They do so for years, building up both their endurance and accuracy better than any other training would permit them to. Because of this, the Hailstormers are known for their deadly precision and stoic calmness while in the heat of battle. Compared to their training, the rigors of war pale in comparison.

The Nameless
When called upon to fire their leathal volley upon the enemy, the Battlemaster would call out any given number bestowed upon their regiment; an order to let fly.
After being refered to in countless battles by the number of their rank, they were coined "The Nameless".
