What additional weapons did they have?

• A. They had no saddle guns.
• B. They carried only swords as backup.
• C. They also had saddle guns.
• D. They used only knives.

Answer: (C)

The main idea being tested is recognizing that there were extra weapons carried in addition to the basic melee arms, specifically firearms mounted on the saddle. The correct choice says they also had saddle guns, which directly answers what extra armament was present. This fits the idea of having multiple weapon types in use at once. The other options imply there were no saddle guns or no firearms at all, or that only one type (like swords or knives) was used, which doesn’t align with the notion of “additional weapons.”
