Armatax, Inc. Historical Arms Company


Armatax is a new Allanean company, staffed with Fordorsian arms experts, Reichskamphenite martial artists, and Allanean engineers. Its primary objective is to research the history of various small arms and melee weapons, and to sell them in quantity to the civilian and military markets of the world.

The primary purpose of Armatax, specifically, is to create fully functional, combat-ready, copies of historical swords, knives, firearms and polearms, which would be both aesthetically pleasing as wall-hangers and entirely acceptable as self-defense weapons or even as military-issue arms. (Armatax cannot be held responsible for any injury or damage to your health resulting from an attempt to use Armatax products in self-defense. We guarantee only the physical quality of the product, and not its usefulness - in other words, if you attempt to purchase a a large quantity of Greatswords and use them in an amphibious landing, that’s on you).

Mark 1 Infantry Greatsword
Image
Art by Fordorsia, Writeup by Allanea


Greatswords are by far some of the coolest swords in existence, at least in the opinion of Armatax staff. If nothing else, they are larger than any other swords, and can totally rearrange an attacker’s day. Used by heavy infantry and mercenaries in the 16th century, the greatswords gradually declined in use to become ceremonial - but only mostl ceremonial, as there are still a few daring - and typically rather muscular souls willing to use them in self-defense.

The Mark 1 Infantry Greatsword is the first sword to come out of our armories. The handle of the Mark 1 Infantry Greatsword is bound in genuine black leather, to match the scabbard. The enormous blade is just under a yard long, and will certainly make short work of any opponent.

D-Guard Cutlass Bowie
Image
Art by Fordorsia, Writeup by Allanea


Allaneans are very fond of great big knives. They carry them everywhere, and everyone from King Blaken-Kazansky to Queen Cassiopeia Blaken-Kazansky to the lowest arcology urchin carries a knife of some manner... and some, of course, carry swords. Weapons, as is well known, are the mark of a Freeman. Knives, guns, and swords are an embedded part of Allanean national culture, and so it was not surprising that this Fordorsian design became a hit in Allanea.

This here is an enormous Bowie knife, comparable in size to the largest Bowie knives of the 19th century, it is so huge one wonders whether it is actually a knife or a very small sword. It is equipped with a D-guard for close combat, which shields the wearer’s knuckles from damage during punches or from the opponent’s blows. The blade is over a foot long, and can be used to both slash and stab.

Magna Acutam Fordorsian Khopesh
Image
Art by Fordorsia, Writeup by Allanea


Fordorsia’s historical contact with the Egyptians has introduced the country to the use of the Khopesh - and after some years, it grew into this immense version called the Magna Acutam - literally, the [i]Great Hook. There are few explanations needed. It is a big, sharp curved blade, similar in conception - but not in size - to necrontyr combat sickles. This very design is battle-tested and used by thousands of military professionals for centuries, and can do a number on even the most hardened opponent. Get a good hit in with a Great Hook and you’ll be thanking us for this wonderful weapon.

In addition, the Magna Acutam is a great ceremonial weapon for security teams - ceremonial in the sense of ‘it can still totally mess you up if you do end up using it in combat’, that is. Arcology resident? Security guard? Resident of some country that won’t let you own a shotgun in home defense? Go get a Great Hook today. Imagine that burglar’s face when you bring out a bloody khopesh.

Call now - the Great Hook will be yours for only $1000!

Fordorsian Bowie Knife
Image
Art by Fordorsia, Writeup by Allanea


Allaneans and Fordorsians alike are especially fond of Bowie knives, the Bowie becoming a virtual symbol of Allanea. In the arcologies, where knives are cheaper than guns, and quality guns are sometimes unaffordable, many choose to carry a large Fordorsian Bowie to complement their carry gun. With a blade that is over a foot long, the Fordorsian Bowie is remininscent of the original, 19th-century Bowie knives carried by settlers and adventurers alike. It can both chop and thrust, and is useful in both close combat and as a tool.

Hunter? Adventurer? Smuggler? Urban professional? The Fordorsian Bowie is for you. It will allow you to skin large game or put the fear of the Gods into burlglars and carjackers. As every other weapon produced or sold by the Armatax Company, this Bowie is fully functional. Itis available for a low, low price of $150.

Fordorsian Seax
Image
Art by Fordorsia, Writeup by Allanea


Made in Fordorsia, this enormous Seax is a valuable self-defense tool - for those people who are fond of ancient tradition, rather than frontiersman lore. Shaped like the heavy blades carried by the Anglo-Saxoon warriors of old, the Seax can easily chop through light firewood - or chop away the fingers of a night-time assailant. It is also a vicious stabbing weapon, as we can see that the blade is over a foot long. The Fordorsian Seax has made its first Allanean appearance at a Tactical Fan Convention [TACFANCON-14], and has since been making headway among the population, with over 20,000 knives sold in the first year.

More, the Fordorsian Seax is equipped with a D-Hilt, protecting your knuckles from enemy blades and enabing it to be used not only as a slashing and cutting implement, but also in vicious punching in close combat. Even if the Fordorsian Seax breaks (which it won’t unless you’re trying to break it on purpose), you can still use it as emergency brass knuckles! Yours for just $150!

Paraganian Arms C96P
Image
Art by Paragania, Writeup by Allanea



The C96P (Paraganian) is, as the name implies, a Paraganian-made variant of the Mauser C96 pistol, first produced in the 1930s by Paraganian authorities. The C96P is a select-fire, detachable-magazine variant of the classic firearm (though semi-auto-only versions are also produced for nations where select-fire firearms are illegal for civilian posession).

The C96P comes with a wooden stock that serves as a sort of holster for the firearm, similar to the stocks used historically. When the firearm is removed from the holster, it can be attached to pistol, turning it into a sort of short-barreled carbine. The pistol’s adjustable, notch-type sights allow it to be used for engaging targets out to 1000 meters.

However, the principal use of the C96P Paraganian today is as a civilian firearm, used by either collectors or security guards. It is produced both in Paragania itself (and exported by Armatax), as well as produced in an Armatax company factory in Kurzweil Province.

While the C96P is somewhat more complex to disassemble and somewhat more expensive than modern firearms in a similar class, it is famous for its long-range accuracy, stopping power, and incredible reliability. It might not be the most modern firearm, but it is a [i]classic firearm.

For persons less interested in historical accuracy, a variant equipped with three Weaver rails (one top, two side-rails) can be purchased.

Weight: 1150 grams
Length: 271mm
Ammunition capacity: 10/20/40 rounds (depending on magazine)
Calibers: Available in 7.63mm Mauser, 7.62mm TT, 9mm Parabellum, .45 ACP, and others
Consumer cost: $800 ($1300 gold-plated)

BKsP m/34E
Borund Kulspurztna Pulmoyt mond 1934 Einsatznat

Image
Art by Puzikas Writeup by Allanea


This firearm has been produced, starting in at Husqvarna Vapruzen et Patrozheniye Fabriken A/B, in Ovgranost, Dniegua. At that time it functioned reasonably well as a squad automatic weapon, being capable of outputting around 900 rounds per minute, an impressive rate of fire by any standards.

The original firearm fired a 13.7 gram projectile at 814 meters per second, being chambered in the proprietary 7.5x6.5mm cartridge. However, due to the popularity of the design with both civilian collectors and paramilitary organizations in Allanea, Armatax chose to bring back the BKSP-34 in various calibers, including most of the common 7.62mm variants, and a .22LR variant (capable of achieving 1200 RPM).


Cost: Historic firearm for collectors: $17,000, modern copy - $2500, DPR UNAVAILABLE
Length 1249 mm (full-length variant), 1104 mm (“carbine” short variant)
Weight: 12.275 kg (full-length), 11.58 kg (“short
Available in: The original firearm has been chambered in 7.5x65mm Kzp m/34. Copies manufactured in Armatax plants in Iolead have been made available in 7.62x51mm NATO, 7.92x57mm and other similar calibers on request.

Kryton Small Arms Industries/Armatax KAR-MkV
[art and specifications by Coltarin, writeup by Allanea]


The Kryton Small Arms Industries KAR-MkV is a bullpup carbine utilizing a short-stroke gas-piston principle (similar to that used in the AR-18 and G-36 series of rifles). Although it had not found, so far, a defense contract, the Kryton Small Arms company of Coltarin eventually did find a nice for KAR-MkV, selling it for export as both a civilian and a military small arm. After finding a warm welcome in Allanea among the sport shooter market and for home defense, Kryton soon signed a contract with Armatax to produce the firearm under license in the Free Kingdom and to have Armatax to serve as its main distributor abroad.

After some deliberation, Armatax contrived a marketing campaign for this rifle that reached into several nations, selling it in various versions and designs. Soon after, the KAR-MkV became available in 5.56x45mm, .22LR, and 6.5mm SPC.

The KAR-Mkv is available both in a select-fire version (with either a safe/semi/full or a safe/semi/three-round burst switch) and a semi-auto version (in countries where full-auto firearms are restricted for civilians or police users). An airsoft replica is also manufactured by Armatax.

For civilian purchasers, it is also possible to purchase the KAR-MkV in a ‘factory custom’ version, with a smoother trigger, various accessories, and higher quality control (every factory custom KAR-MkV is test-fired for accuracy at factory and only firearms passing a group accuracy test are sold in this category). Factory custom KAR-MkV arrive in a special hard plastic storage case/range case, three-position tactical sling, four magazines, a cleaning kit, and an instructional DVD named Art of the Bullpup, in which leading sportsmen and tactical operators explain the fine points of using bullpups in combat, home defense, and competition.

‘Freeman’s Hand’ Bowie Knife
Image
image credit belongs to the one, the only, Fordorsia


If there is one thing that Allaneans love almost as much as guns, it is knives and swords. Like the settlers of old, Allaneans – both the upper class and the poorer sort, the sort known as ‘arcotrash’ abroad – love carrying enormous knives, sometimes as tools, but more often as weapons and symbols. And the most famous Allanean knives are, of course, Bowie knives - some of these being over a foot long.

The knife we have here - the 'Freeman’s Hand’ - is a relatively cheap, but large, knife. It is being sold here primarily for civilian use, although military clients can, if they so choose, also buy it. It is fairly modest, one could argue - the blade just over a foot long, the knife itself weighing in at 950 grams.

Each of the knives is precision-ground, heat-treated and tempered at the Armatax factory to rival any sword made by Armatax. It is available both with or without the knuckle-guard seen in the image, and can be made available blued, chromed, or in a variety of colors (even bright-green!) to the ordering party's choice.

Be ready.
Be free.

Be armed like a Freeman – with a ‘Freeman’s Hand’ Bowie Knife!

Available now, at the low, low price of only $150!

Mark 5 Tactical Gladius
Image
Art by Fordorsia, Writeup by Allanea


As is well-known, the military regulations of the Free Kingdom enable commissioned officers to carry a melee weapon of their choice with their uniform. Sometimes the weapon chosen is a sword, sometimes it is a more exotic item, such as a mace or a trench flail. Gaining popularity in recent years has been the tactical gladius.

As seen here, it is the evolution of the gladius first used in Ancient Rome, and later utilized by foot artillerymen in Napoleonic France. Like then, the gladius is useful not only as a melee weapon, but as a sharp implement, chopping branches and limbs alike with equal ease. In a non-military setting, it’s an entirely reasonable personal defense weapon in any environment where a firearm is unavailable or inappropriate. It can be carried in your automobile (and used as both a rescue implement and a self-defense weapon), on your belt, or serve as a home defense weapon, a circumstance in which it would definitely rearrange any enterprising burglar’s schedule.

The Armatax Mark 5 Tactical Gladius is typically shipped with a black, matte blade, but variants with a white steel or even a chromed steel blade is available. The Tactical Gladius typically ships with a black kratom handle (as depicted above), but handles in other colors (blue, green, red, or industrial orange) are available.

Mark 6 Greater Prussian Officer’s Shashka
Image
Image
Art by Fordorsia, Writeup by Allanea


[align=justify]The Mark 6 Shashka takes its origins in research by the Russian Imperial Army, interested in issuing a weapon for their officers that would be efficient both for use in horseback, capable of being used as a thrusting weapon for cavalry attacks and a cutting weapon in close combat on foot, maximizing its cutting capacity and wound area while also being easy to used and maneuver in combat. The resulting sword was shorter than the shashkas then in use by cavalry, as well as significantly lighter. Moreover, its curve was adjusted after a study of Caucasian volchok shashkas, which were then thought to have maximum wounding capacity in cuts while retaining a stabbing capacity. Finally, its center of gravity was moved down towards the hilt, to improve handling.

The result was an 805-gram, 81-cm sword, capable of inflicting devastating injury both in cuts from the draw, in thrusts from horseback, and short enough to be useful in the merciless trench warfare of the Great War. What we see here is a remanufacture of the sword using the most modern steelmaking and insight of Allanean swordsmiths, first deployed with the Reichskamphenite regiments of the Greater Prussian Army and Imperial Guard, and later spreading into Allanea itself. Slight adjustments were made such as the removal of the guard, modern handle materials for improved grip, etc.

Now the Mark 6 Shashka is available for export.

[Greater Prussia Member States and members of Greater Prussia member alliances can apply for Greater Prussian budget assistance to receive these shashkas in quantities]

Armatax Shapat
Image
Art by Imeriata, Writeup by Allanea


The shapat is the traditional sword and tool of the fighting Orcs of New Gundabad. A heavy blade, part sword and part machete, it was used by Orcs from Mordor to Moriah to both defend their caves and chop down firewood. The distinctive hook at the back of the sword is used for a range of tasks.

This production is carried out by Armatax in cooperation with authentic New Gundabad swordsmiths who oversee all stages in production, allowing for the creation of a quality weapon, composed of high carbon steel, with an elegant leather wrapping around the handle. (Kraton, silicone, or other variant handles are also available). The sword is sturdy enough both to be used in self-defense and as a tool, and is also finished with a unique dark-grey finish to make it look like the Orc swords of old, so it can be also displayed in your home as a badge of pride, showing you off as both a brave and charitable warrior.

You see, the sword is available in two basic variants – the regular sword, and the factory custom, created and forged for you. The factory custom uses a higher grade of steel and is laser-sharpened, while gold filigree is wrapped around its handle. $15 from the sale of each regular, and $100 off the sale of each Factory Custom shapat go to support the New Gundabad Metalworkers Benevolent Society, which is the non-profit partner Armatax has selected for this business venture.

Klatau Sabre
Image
Art by Imeriata



Length: 82 cm full length
Price: $2,000 Bespoke edition, $500 Daily edition or Practice Edition

The Klatau is the Armatax take on the traditional swords of the nobility, the traditions of the noble houses of Snogohsia fused with the latest developments in blade production technology. The Klatau had been made out of 6150 steel, and tested extensively in laboratory conditions by expert swordsmen, with several designs discarded until the Klatau achieved its current degree of curve, capable of achieving devastating wound tunnels on a range of targets including ballistic gelatin, pig and cow corpses.

All Klatau blades are produced using precision computer-controlled technology (sword blanks are milled rather than forged, maximizing precision in manufacture). Only after this production stage is the sword hand-finished by our employees. After the blade is produced, two production lines exist for the different Klataublades. At one, the Bespoke edition is produced. This is the extra-high-quality edition, produced at a 'factory custom' level of fit and finish. All swords in this range are inspected using ultrasound, and each one has at least one test cut made with it by an on-staff practitioner. Each is fitted with a handle produced by a certified professional jeweler and plated in real 24K golds. (For an extra fee, jewels can be installed or a family crest etched or fitted). It is perfect for use by high-level military personnel, for self-defense use or for cutting competition.

The Daily edition is still made out of the same high-grade 6150 steel, and undergoes high-level quality control, although it is fit and finished to a level slightly less than the Bespoke, and the handle is a simple kraton/leather handle rather than engraved gold. It is an excellent choice for use by professional military personnel, for cutting competition at entry levels, and for home defense and law enforcement use.

Finally, the Practice edition comes off the same range as the Daily, however the blade is dulled for safety and is equipped with a rolled tip. It is intended for sparring and other martial arts training with full safety gear.

All swords in the Klatau range ship with a scabbard and a tube of blade polishing paste that has been tested with 6150 steel.

Get them from Allanean Defense Exports!

Background: This Imerian Battleseax is the product of long-term cooperation between Armatax management and Imerian Merchant Guild and traditional Imerian bladesmiths, intended to bring the Imerian battle tradition to the larger world market. As part of our cooperation, we have invested funds to build a spectacular blade factory in Söderhamn, in Imeriata proper, where Imerian workers, engineers, and bladesmith work to make and test blades that replicate the finest in Imerian weapons traditions with the most modern manufacturing and quality control technology.

The Battleseax in its standard version is identical to the combat seaxes used by generations of Scanderans for over a millennium. It is a heavy, long blade, capable of both stabbing and chopping, which can be used as a tool but is exceptionally useful as a weapon of self-defense.

In the standard version, the Battleseax comes with a dark oak handle and brass fittings, and is shipped to you with a leather sheath. (A parkerized metal blade and a kraton handle are available, but cannot be considered authentic). For those who are interested in the finer things in life, for double that sum you can own a factory custom Battleseax - with a finer sharpening edge, with each individual blade quality-tested by an authentic Scanderan bladesmith. Finally, for the very reasonable sum of one thousand New Dornalian Dollars, you can have your very own Scanderan Battleseax custom-forged for you by an actual, flesh-and-blood, Imerian in actual Imeriata!

We must remind all of our users that each and every one of our Battleseaxes is a sharp, combat-worthy blade, and is to be used in accordance with all the normal rules of blades safety. Remember - always practice safe seax!

Armatax Mark 3 Cavalry Lance
Image
Art by Imeriata


Length: 2.75 meters
Weight: 2 kilograms
Price: $200

Please make all your orders at Allanean Defense Exports

Background: In today's world, cavalry had almost vanished from the scene. With the exception of some special operations forces and mountain units, horses are rarely ever used in warfare, and the household cavalry of various royal houses almost never engage in war. As such, most manufacturers no longer produce cavalry lances.

However, Armatax is not most manufacturers. Having observed the Tiergarten Incident,, where the royal palace of Karlsland was attacked directly in the capital by Sadera forces, it is clear to us that if your forces need a weapon, it needs to be a useful weapon. Any parade sword or lance could end up being used as a genuine weapon of war. (Moreover, some nations are not purely populated by humans – some types of humanoids will find a long spear a lot more useful than a human does!)

Therefore, we have produced and made available to our customers the newest, Mark 3 cavalry lance. Produced based on the cavalry lances used in the World Wars, the Mark 3 cavalry lance incorporates the latest in modern materials science and design engineering. It is lightweight and of moderate length, making it both long enough for charging attacks and short enough to deflect enemy blows (experience showed that lances longer than 9 foot are impracticable).

Description:The lance is a lightweight tube, ending in a sharp blade and weighing a total of two kilograms. The metal tube is sheathed in wood, with the area held by the user's hand further sheathed in leather, to prevent frostbite or discomfort. A leather loop near the base of the lap is provided to use as a foot pedal to increase stability during cavalry charges. Further, the lance base, and reinforcement rings along its length, are decorated in copper. For those that so desired, the lance can be equipped with a whistle, to produce a terrifying sound when thrown from a height or used in a high-speed charge.

We recommend issuing the lance alongside with a secondary weapon.

Background: The threat of global climate change, combined with the increase in the habitat of various hostile megafauna, has been a concern for many observers. Recently, zoologists have predicted an appearance of a polar/grizzly bear hybrid, a so-called Grizzlar bear. Armatax decided that we could not stand idly by in these difficult times. We decided to go back to traditional bear-hunting weaponry, and draw upon the hunting pistols of the past to give our clients a weapon that would allow them to preserve both their lives and their status as apex predators.

Therefore, we have produced a high-caliber 1911 pistol, similar to the heavy caliber hunting/sporting pistols of the past - re-engineered with the most modern ergonomics features of modern handgun production. That was named the Grizzlar - in honor of both Grizzlar bears and the Grizzly Win Mag pistol of ages past.

The Grizzlar pistol is fully optics ready and light ready, enabling you to shoot your ursine attacker even in pitch darkness and in stress conditions, It is equipped with a skeletonized trigger and hammer, as well as recoil-absorbing grips (the front and rear of the grips are made to match the pistol, while the side grips are traditional dark brown). It is also ported, enabling the user to better withstand the recoil of the .45 Win Mag or other large pistol cartridges in which it is produced.

Finally we must add that the pistol is also available in a factory custom version, or a factory-custom gold-plated version, for use in sporting contests such as Silhoette shooting.

In short, the Grizzlar is the pistol that Armatax made for you to repel the onslaughts of some of the worst creatures that Stepmother Nature has to throw at you. They might be big. They might be big. But you’ve got science and progress on your side - and one big gun.[/align]

Armatax HDN-140 Home Defense Naginata
Image
Art by Imeriata


Blade material: Stainless steel
Length: 140 cm
Mass: 1.5 kg
Price: $100 Tactical Naginata, $150 traditional Naginata

Background: Not everyone can use a firearm as a weapon of self-defense. Not only are firearms prohibited in some jurisdictions, there are also religious, traditional, and other considerations limiting their use. While obviously we at Armatax prefer the shotgun or rifle as the home defense weapon, clearly many of our customers think otherwise.

One option to consider, if the use of firearms is off the table, is the traditional answer of many cultures, namely resorting to a mid-length polearm. Various solutions of this type have been used across the globe to fight back against home invaders, enemy troops, to hunt boars and bear alike.

One elegant solution is the Naginata - a weapon that is considered in some societies to be a polearm, and in others a sword with a very long handle. Even those of us who lack the patience to study true naginatajutsu for a period of half a decade to achieve basic mastery of the weapon can still apply basic polearm skills (which can be learned rather rapidly) to use a naginata much as they would a glaive or another polearm.

Today, through the magic of international trade, naginatas are used not only by the culture that originated them, and are used in ways for which they were not conceived originally - for instance, they are used by farmers to keep feral hogs under control on their properties.

Armatax is here to offer you two versions of the classic weapon as part of our HDN-140 Home Defense Naginata line. One is a modern, black-framed, polymer naginata with a stainless steel blade, designed for ergonomics, simplicity, and strength. It does not very much cleave to ancient tradition, but we don’t think a hog - or a home invader - will mind that very much. For those of you who are traditionally minded, we offer a somewhat more expensive, yet still sturdy, version, with brass fittings and an ornate tsuba. (Make sure your burglar is impressed when you cleave their skull in twain.)

In each case, the HDN-140 is shipped with a sheath for the blade and a tube of blade-cleaning paste.

Armatax Solver Assault Hammer
Image
Art by Imeriata


Length: 50 cm (Solver) / 33 cm (Solver-C)
Weight: 1600 grams / 1100 grams
Price: $75 / $60 New Dornalian
DPR: $50 million New Dornalian

Make all your orders at Allanean Defense Exports!

Background: Soldiers, law enforcement, and rescue personnel encounter, more and more often, everyday obstacles - doors, partition walls, fences and the like. While sometimes explosives can be used to breach a passes, sometimes this is undesirable for tactical reasons - and frankly it’s not always possible to get a breaching charge for every door and fence you have to break. (People also ask questions if firefighters or EMTs start using explosives in people’s houses.)

In light of this, more and more companies have been offering various tools to help people breach obstacles. Hammers, battering rams, cutters, hinge breakers have all been appearing on the tactical supply market. Armatax, a long-term player in the field of melee weapons and tools, has proposed a solution named the SolverTM - a tactical breaching hammer / crowbar combination tool.

Description: The main SolverTM is a full-length, 50-centimeter tactical hammer, drop-forged from a single piece of 5150 carbon steel. The hammer head is a flat piece on the front with a spike on the rear, capable of being used in a series of tactical and applied tasks. The handle is additionally equipped with a simple crowbar end, sufficient for breaking chains and simple bars.

Moreover, the handle is wrapped, by the customer’s choice, in either rubberized polymer, leather, or wood (rubberized polymer versions are the most common and come in a number of colors.

For those customers seeking something more compact, the Solver-CTM is a more usable 33-cm version.

All SolverTM and Solver-CTM hammers ship with a MOLLE compatible carrying case to be worn on one’s hip or uniform.

Armatax Autobat
Image
Art by Imeriata


Make all your orders at Allanean Defense Exports

Length: 75 cm
WeighT: 950 grams
Price: $25 / $50 (with custom-ordered print)

Background: Of course, the ideal means of self-defense is a firearm. A trusty shotgun, a tactical rifle, or a service pistol can bridge the difference between a humble peaceable citizen, and armed carjackers or terrorists. Indeed, many a trained soldier had lost his life to a ‘mere’ citizen with a rifle.

But to be honest, not everybody can own a firearm, nor is everybody in position to own a firearm. Some countries don’t allow carrying a firearm in your vehicle, and some people just don’t want to leave a gun in their vehicle, fearing that the vehicle might be stolen, or perhaps broken into, and the firearm taken out of the vehicle. Beyond this, not all confrontations arguably justify firearm use.

But you still want to be ready. One day, fate itself will tell you - [i]Batter up. And you will need to step up.

Therefore, Armatax offers you the AutobatTM - the Automotive Baseball Bat. Composed of high-impact polypropylene, it is available in a variety of colors and with the emblems of several famous companies on it. (The Autobat TM ships with a set of synthetic leather hand wrapper for you to apply if desired.)

Because it is sturdy and light, the Autobat is well suited not only for vehicle defense and home defense, but also for more conventional uses, e.g. for batting practice and - amazingly - playing baseball. For an additional payment, it can be printed with an emblem or phrase of your choice.

And then - in your home, in your car, on the baseball pitch - you will be ready when you hear Fate’s voice.


BATTER UP.
