👉 A gauge weapon is a type of firearm that features a built-in gauge or dial, typically located on the barrel, to measure the amount of ammunition remaining within the magazine. This gauge provides a visual indication of the weapon's capacity, helping users quickly assess how much more shot they can fire before reloading. Unlike traditional magazines that require manual counting, gauge weapons offer a more intuitive and convenient method for managing ammunition, making them popular in hunting, shooting sports, and military applications where quick access to ammunition is crucial.
