      But I guess my comment was too subtle for you as you are like the OP and locked into this idea a 'battle' has to be fought with weapons.
      So let me explain:
      Some people who have never picked up a weapon have been in a battle some of, if not all of, their lives. Like people with MND, long term cancer, deafness, depression, mental illness, blindness or other major disabilities. They fight battles every day that an SA80 would be of no use whatsoever.
      Battles that clearly you have NO idea about.
