Concealed + Infernal Pursuit

I have played one Infernal Pursuit. After I play the Concealed Weapon and I replace two cards. Can I discard the equipment I chose for my Concealed Weapon?

Yes. https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!msg/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/X8Uu7Sk56P4/twUvR4ZnBBkJ

No, you have to fulfill the effect (eg. playing a .44 Magnum) if able.

It doesn't matter. Same link as above.

Xaddam wrote: Obviously this would be same question as: do I chose a specific card or do I chose a card name to Conceal?

By name. Same link as above.

Xaddam wrote: If yes to the first question, would this mirror the ruling on fizzled actions that I should pay the cost even when the effect fails. Would I pay the pool for the weapon even if the Concealed Weapon fails to play a weapon?

No. You pay the cost of the "Concealed Weapon" card (which is 0 most of the time, but you may consider Chiram's Hold for inscreasing the cost of that card). Then the card fails to find the .44 Magnum, therefore you don't equip it and you don't pay for it.
