A weapon that is able to reach a Long Range relative to self.

Comments:

Long Range Weapon is a relatively generic term and can refer to any Environmental Object used offensively.

Long Range Weapons are ones that are either at the far end of the spectrum of reach (e.g. Natural Weapon) or ones that extend one's reach - such as a Man-made Weapon.

Just because a weapon is categorized as Long Range does not mean is must be used at Long Range. Under certain circumstances, Long Range Weapons can be used at Short Range and Medium Range without being jammed.

Example(s):

Executing a kick to the opponent's groin, demonstrates the application of a Long Range Weapon.

Opposite(s):

Short Range Weapon, Medium Range Weapon
