👉 A connected weapon, also known as a hybrid weapon or multi-functional weapon, is an improvised or custom-made firearm that combines the basic components of a traditional firearm with additional attachments or accessories to enhance its functionality. This can include features like a pistol barrel attached to a rifle stock, a bayonet mount, or even a grenade launcher. The primary purpose of a connected weapon is to extend the versatility and lethality of a standard firearm, allowing users to adapt their weapon to various combat scenarios or tasks. These weapons are often created by soldiers, civilians, or military personnel in the field to overcome limitations of standard firearms and improve their tactical effectiveness.
