👉 A trash weapon, often colloquially referred to as a "junk weapon," is any improvised or discarded weapon made from non-functional, often hazardous materials such as plastic, metal scraps, or other waste. These weapons are typically created by individuals in desperate situations, such as during conflicts or economic hardships, and can include items like broken glass, discarded metal cans, or even plastic bags. Due to their composition, they are often unpredictable and dangerous, posing significant risks to both the user and others. Despite their illegality in many contexts, trash weapons are a grim reminder of the desperation and resourcefulness that can arise in challenging circumstances.
