I agree with the rope idea instead of handcuffs, especially considering you will be more likely to find rope than handcuffs. Another option would be duct tape. One possibility regarding the lethality issue would be to add LTL (Less-Than-Lethal) weapons and/or ammo. Examples: rubber/wax/plastic bullets (maybe AK, STANAG, and a few [not all] pistols?), rubber slugs/pellets for shotguns, M203 Bean Bag round, Taser (Takes up sidearm slot when in use, tool-belt slot when not [like flashlight]), flashbang grenade, etc. -TW
