Leeds Royal Armoury (DD1101)

Today we paid a visit to the Leeds Royal Armoury where we were given some time to handle a variety of melee and ranged weapons so that we could get a more accurate idea of how these weapons would work with our next task. 

An example of this is how heavy they are since some games have a single character carrying an array of weapons which would be impossible in reality. They require a large amount of strength to be wielded for long periods of time.

Below I have posted some images of the trip so that you can get a better understanding of what we came across. Just to be clear - ALL WEAPONS WERE BEING HANDLED IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF QUALIFIED STAFF IN THE MUSEUM. NO LIVE ROUNDS WERE USED OR PRESENTED DURING THE DISPLAY. THIS WAS PURELY FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES.
