👉 A ready weapon, also known as a self-defense weapon, is an object that an individual intentionally carries with the intent to use it as a means of defense against an imminent threat or attack. Unlike a tool for everyday tasks, a ready weapon is specifically designed or modified to be effective in self-defense situations. These weapons can range from everyday items like a kitchen knife or a baseball bat to more specialized tools such as pepper spray or tasers, and their use is governed by legal statutes that vary widely by jurisdiction. The primary purpose of a ready weapon is to deter or neutralize potential harm, ensuring the safety and well-being of the person wielding it.
