Ancillary weapon

An ancillary weapon is something that you use in addition to your main weapon to help you do your job better. Imagine you are a firefighter and your main tool is a hose to put out fires. An ancillary weapon for you could be a special axe that helps you break through walls or doors if you need to get to the fire. The axe is not your main tool, but it helps you do your job better. Another example could be a chef who uses a knife as their main tool. An ancillary weapon for them could be a sharpener to keep their knife in good shape and always ready to use. So, an ancillary weapon is basically an extra tool that helps you do your job better!
