👉 A cold weapon refers to any weapon that is not infused with or derived from biological, chemical, or nuclear agents. These include traditional firearms like rifles, pistols, and shotguns, as well as non-lethal tools such as tasers, pepper spray, batons, and stun guns. Cold weapons are typically used for self-defense or law enforcement purposes without the intent to cause permanent harm, relying instead on incapacitation or deterring threats through fear of pain or discomfort.
