👉 An analog weapon is a firearm that operates using mechanical or physical means rather than electronic components. Unlike modern semi-automatic or fully automatic rifles, analog weapons typically rely on manual cocking and firing mechanisms, such as lever-action or bolt-action designs. These weapons often use a spring-loaded or manually cocked mechanism to load and fire rounds, making them simpler, more reliable in certain environments, and sometimes more accessible or affordable. Examples include the Colt Peacemaker, Winchester Model 1873, and the Remington Model 1886.
