Disabled: Not currently available Long Arm is currently disabled from the game. Assets for this exist within the game files, but will not be encountered through normal gameplay.

The Long Arm is a tool that was originally designed as the mechanism for capturing bounty criminals in the the bounty hunting update. In its intended use, the player equipped it when approaching a bounty criminal, and began firing it while aiming at the criminal. If the player held a target lock on the criminal for long enough, the criminal was captured. If the player failed to hold the target lock, or took too much damage, the criminal escaped and could continue attacking the player.

When Version 1.4.0 was released, the Long Arm's arresting mechanism was replaced by the player simply attacking the bounty criminal and reducing their health to 0, which triggered capture. The Long Arm was disabled but not removed from the game assets. If admin commands are used to spawn it into the game, the player can still equip it and use it to target a bounty criminal, which activates the target-lock animation, but the code for capturing the criminal no longer exists, rendering the Long Arm effectively useless.
