Note on experimental weapons: Experimental weapons or materials are still
subject to standard armor and weapon inspection standards. For example,
thrusting tips must still have the required amount of compression. Weapons or
armor constructed from materials that have been "legalized" after the
experimental stage must still meet regular safety standards, as do all armor or
weapons, regardless of the actual material used in construction.
No piece of equipment "automatically" passes without inspection.
