👉 An adjacent weapon refers to a secondary or supplementary weapon that is typically carried or used in close proximity to the primary weapon, often for increased lethality, versatility, or convenience. For example, a sniper rifle might be accompanied by a pistol or shotgun for rapid fire or close-quarters combat, while a marksman with a rifle could carry a grenade launcher or a submachine gun as an adjacent weapon. These additional tools enhance the user's combat capabilities by allowing for a broader range of tactical options and adaptability in various situations.
