This single piece of shaped wood is a little under 3 feet long. One end is thin and often wrapped in tape for gripping, while the other end is thicker to carry the weight of swings.

In locales where weapons are banned, this mere "toy" can be the most reliable means of self-defense. Brace. If you make a melee attack with a brace weapon as part of an attack you prepared with the Ready action, you have advantage on the attack roll.

Despite using rudimentary technology, revolvers have stood the test of time as reliable weapons capable of handling larger rounds without may chamber pressure limitations. Due to their simple design, they can typically take larger rounds than a handgun. |

Pump ShotgunSimple Ranged Weapons

Even older than pump-action shotguns, double-barrel shotguns were some of the earliest handheld gunpowder weapons created, and as such have been outpaced in military use, making them exclusively civilian. |
Stun GunSimple Ranged Weapons
A taser is a less-lethal device primarily used by law enforcement that channels electricity into a target through a pair of barbs. If the target takes damage from a ranged attack with this weapon, they must attempt a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failure, they are incapacitated and their movement speed is reduced to 0 until the end of their next turn. On a success, their movement speed is cut in half until the end of their next turn. If a creature fails by 5 or more, they are stunned until the end of their next turn instead. Creatures that are resistant to lightning damage have advantage on this saving throw, and creatures that are immune to lightning damage are immune to this effect. |
