No, it's one of those Americanisms.
I do stop short of using a "zee", though.

In fact, I think it's quite a good word.
I can't think of anything else that quite means the same thing, off the top of my head.

'armed'?

hmmm, not really
armed is adding a weapon, not turning something into one.
What would the A-Team have said, that should settle it?

I like this post very much indeed
You're on excellent form today, sir. In fact I propose that you replace Murdoch as the funny one.

Nope. You arm a person or a thing by giving it a weapon.
Giving a thing a weapon doesn't make it a weapon itself. I can't think of another term to describe turning a thing itself into a weapon.

One word is better than four.

You could have just said 'Yes'
