Locking bars and arming up!

[craig_colliass]

I think this is a sensible step, not just for arming up the robot, but if you have to separate robots that are jammed together. Putting "the locking bar" in would secure the weapon when men are very close to the robots in the arena and they are still armed! unjamming them would not be as hazardous.

Oh I just found this rule.

12.11 Weapon Restraints
All weapons must incorporate a secure restraint that locks the weapon in a safe position.
The restraint may incorporate locking pins, straps and bars but must be secured in such a way that it cannot be removed
inadvertently.
The design should ensure that the weapon cannot be fired during the activation process.
