👉 A boundary weapon, also known as a border weapon or frontier weapon, is a type of firearm designed for use in remote or hostile environments where traditional military weapons may be impractical or ineffective. These weapons are typically compact, lightweight, and designed for quick reloading, making them ideal for law enforcement, military patrols, or border security operations. They often feature a shorter barrel and magazine capacity to enhance mobility and reduce the time needed to reload, enabling officers to maintain a continuous firefight in challenging terrains or situations. Examples include the Glock 17, Glock 19, and the AR-15 variant used by many law enforcement agencies.
