A thought I keep going back to whenever I'm bored is - what would actually be the best weapon to carry - from a perspective of ease of acquisition, ease of carrying, not life in prison if you're caught with one... It's an interesting question.

Picture unrelated

Honestly if we just want something good that has an easy to explain non-illegal reason to have I'd probably go with a roofing hammer or a walking stick. I mean if you're talking about ease of use the Noble stick has been the preferred weapon of humanity for a very long time. I'd guess more people have died to staves/spears in history than any other weapon in existence. Guns included

Everything is contextual of course, but I feel like my favored tool for a midnight WaffleHouse visit would be:
* Extensible pocket baton that can reach about 3-4 feet
* With probes on one end and a taser on the other
* And with an absurdly powerful "flashlight" with reasonably narrow beam so I can just blind the motherfucker while he's rushing
