👉 A sustained weapon, often referred to as a "permanent or semi-permanent weapon," is a type of firearm that has been modified to maintain its capacity for continuous firing over extended periods. Unlike standard firearms, which require frequent reloading or can be easily emptied and reloaded, sustained weapons typically feature a magazine that can hold multiple rounds, allowing the user to maintain a steady rate of fire without interruption. This is achieved through various mechanisms, such as a detachable magazine or a magazine that can be easily swapped out. These weapons are commonly used in scenarios where rapid and continuous fire is necessary, such as in military operations, law enforcement, or specialized tactical situations. The design ensures that the weapon remains operational for longer durations, enhancing its effectiveness in high-stress, prolonged engagements.
