First I tried to put those weapons (sling, axe, primitive knife) into slots 1,2,3 on hotbar. Then pressed 1,2,3 - and nothing.
Tried to get into battle stance first, pressing R, but hey, once pressing 1,2,3, only the animation of something like "dressing up" appeared (patting himself on shoulders and upper hands)

Footman 30
Slinger 25
Tools are in OK condition, aprox 80%, I'm starting, trying to understand controls on part of Newbie village where the hunter is...
Okay simple fix... you did it wrong. Not the first person who has done this.
Go to your Militia skill, drag the equip from left back, left waist, right back, and left waist BACK to your hot bar spots 1,2,3,4.
NOW go to your paperdoll hotkey "P", and double click on your weapons, it will place them where they should go. If you want them somewhere else, like a second axe, then drag it to your left waist slot or your back slot.
NOW hit R, and then hit 1,2,3 or 4.... Or just hit 1,2,3 or 4... this will draw that weapon.
Dragging the weapon directly to your hot bar just means you can equip and unequip it, without opening your backpack.
