Axe + Weapon

[McLure 0]

HI just found a Lee Rifle and I love my Axe.

But how can I equipp the Axe and put the Lee on my back?

It always tells me "not enough space" when I try to equipp the Axe.

But I dont know how to make more space .. which backpack slots should I clear for my Lee-Rifle?

You can't since they are both primary weapons. You could put the hatcet in you backpack though but it wouldnt be "on your back"

You actually raise a good point. In order to use the hatchet as a melee weapon, you need to keep 10 slots free in your backpack if you want to keep any other primary weapon you already have equipped.

Otherwise you will have to drop your primary gun on the ground and pick it up later.

Personally I'll probably just go back to using the hatchet to chop wood unless I get desperate and run out of ammo in my guns (or have no other weapon if I respawn)
