👉 An assistance weapon, often referred to as an assistive weapon or adaptive weapon, is a specialized tool designed to enhance the capabilities of individuals with physical disabilities or limitations in combat situations. Unlike traditional weapons, these assistive devices are engineered to be user-friendly and tailored to specific needs, such as providing stability, increased reach, or enhanced sensory feedback. They can range from modified firearms with ergonomic grips and stabilizers to non-lethal devices that incapacitate opponents without causing permanent harm. The primary goal of an assistance weapon is to empower individuals with disabilities to engage in combat effectively and safely, ensuring they can protect themselves or others while minimizing risks.
