👉 An interim weapon, also known as an ad-hoc weapon or emergency weapon, is a firearm or other projectile device that is designed and manufactured quickly to provide immediate protection in situations where conventional weapons are not readily available or accessible. These weapons are typically lightweight, easy to conceal, and can be assembled rapidly by trained personnel, making them particularly useful in conflict zones, natural disasters, or other emergencies where standard military equipment may be too cumbersome. They often include basic ammunition and are intended to bridge the gap until more permanent solutions can be established or until regular military forces arrive.
