Need advice on the best weapons.

[Scythe13]

Personally, I'd rather run than fight. Fighting is the last bastion when all other options are exhausted.

With that in mind, I'd not bother fighting with air weapons, and I'm not a fan of someone being too close to me (knife range). If you have a knife and there is a brick launched at your head, and you don't have time to move......issue. Same with most things and a petrol bomb. If that's coming at you, and you aint got time to move....problem!

I'd opt for a fire arm certificate, and a shotgun license. Those would be 100 times more effective. If you want, you have a crossbow, and I'll have an AR15, Remington 700, or something similar, and we'll see whose feeling more confident with their weapon of choice. Get where I'm coming from?

If you can't get away from it, then go into it armed as best you can!
