Well Gene, I couldn't see the relevance to 'ethnographic' weapons....but then I realised.....a bit of chainmail and you'd have a Kulah-Khud

with its own 'glow in the dark' light....would certainly get you noticed on the battle field
Is Portsmouth that dangerous that you feel the need to 'stockpile' such extreme measures ....or is the economy so bad that the Royal Navy needs to sell some of its weaponry to 'make ends meet'
Kind Regards David
