THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I HAD IN MIND IF IT WAS A POLICE WEAPON RATHER THAN A TOOL. PERHAPS YOUR PICTURES WILL BRING SOMEONE INTO THE DISCUSSION WHO HAS SEEN SOME ORIGINAL EXAMPLES. ONE CAN ONLY HOPE

IT WOULD ALSO BE A WEAPON THAT COULD BE MADE IN PIECES UNDER THE WATCH OF OFFICIALS OF THOSE IN POWER AND THE COMPONENTS QUICKLY ASSEMBLED IN A SAFE AREA WITH LITTLE NEED FOR TOOLS OR NOISE. MATERIALS LEAD SHEET OR PIPE AND A WOOD FARM TOOL HANDLE AND SOME NAILS, TOOLS A HAMMER AND PERHAPS A SAW. SHAPEING LEAD WITH A HAMMER MAKES LITTLE NOISE AND CAN EVEN BE DONE WITH A WOODEN MALLET AND A NAIL EASILY DRIVES THRU LEAD.

ANOTHER THOUGHT I HAD WAS THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A VERY LARGE POLICE FORCE, MORE LIKE A MILITIA OR SMALL ARMY IF THE ATHORITYS KEPT THAT LARGE AN AMOUNT OF WEAPONS FOR THEIR FORCES. IF THAT WAS THE CASE WHY NOT SUPPLY THEM WITH BETTER WEAPONS, SPEARS, BOWS, SWORDS, SLINGS, ECT.

REASONING FURTHER, PERHAPS THE GROUP ORGANIZING AGAINST THOSE IN POWER REASONED THAT THE ATHORITYS WOULD NOT BE WATCHING CLOSELY WHEN THEY MADE MALLETS WHICH WERE TOOLS. AND IF THE STOCKPILE WAS FOUND IT COULD BE EXPLAINED THAT THEY WERE A LARGE STOCK SOON TO BE SHIPPED AS DEMAND WAS HIGH OR THEY HAD A LARGE ORDER. IF THAT IS THE CASE IT WORKED AS THE ATHORITYS SURELY HAD SPIES WATCHING ANY PLACE THAT COULD FORGE WEAPONS OF ANY SORT AND SPEARS, SWORDS OR BOWS WOULD HAVE BROUGHT IMEDIATE RESPONCE.
NOT VERY HELPFUL AND WITH NO PROOF AND JUST RAMBELING

BUT CONJECTURE IS FUN AND SOMETIMES EVEN POINTS SOMEONE IN THE DIRECTION OF REAL FACTS AND ANSWERS.
