👉 A carry weapon is a compact, portable firearm or ammunition-carrying device designed for concealed or handheld use by law enforcement officers, military personnel, and other professionals requiring quick access to firepower. Typically weighing less than 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds), it is engineered for ease of concealment and transport, often featuring a holster or pouch to securely hold the weapon and ammunition. These weapons are designed to be effective in close-quarters combat situations, allowing users to respond rapidly and safely to threats while maintaining operational stealth. Common types include pistol grips, compact revolvers, and even specialized handguns like the Glock 19 or the AR-15 variant.
