Various sources such as WP suggest the weapon sense is zhua1, not wo1
https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/撾

zhua1 also makes more sense, given that 挝[zhua1] was a variant of 抓[zhua1],
and the weapon has a "hand or claw" at the end.

I am skeptical about 飞挝 being wo1, I did read the previous discussion and saw
the Baidu page says wo1, but I still have doubts. If you search "飞抓" for
example you get lots of results

Editor: Well, back in 2019 I was, it seems, just going on what's indicated in Baidu and Grand Ricci (namely, wo1). I wouldn't have had a clue otherwise. But anyway, I don't put Baidu near the top of my list of sources for trustworthiness.

I see that, apart from Wikipedia, zhua1 is indicated in zh-Wikt (although the pinyin was added by "Wjcdbot", and the "bot" part of their name doesn't sound very reassuring).
https://zh.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=%E9%A3%9B%E6%92%BE&direction=next&oldid=1518534

... and also, more convincingly, it's zhua1 in M:

... and in HDC.

In addition, LA's entry for 撾 strongly suggests that zhua1 would be the py in 飛撾.

So I have no problem with changing to zhua1 in 飛撾.
