A friend of mine is trying to sell me a REAL tazzer (like the police carry) with a couple of the little pack thingamabobs that snap on the end and shoot the probes out.
From what I remember about those you have to get a special permit to sell them.....don't you???
I don't want the thing myself. I can only IMAGINE having all of the mess I deal with all of the time and the thing that gets me into trouble would be a tazzer!!!

I know of no federal restrictions. Check your state laws.
What model is it? M26? X26?
Surely you can't just buy a gun that shoots probes into someone's body and jolts them with electricity without SOME kind of permit or restrictions......???
As long as there is no powder charge propelling the probes, the feds aren't interested. Check your local laws.
The original TASER did use a powder charge to propel the probes, and since there was no rifling in the "barrel," it was classified as AOW, and required registration.
Look, they sell to anyone:

The "background check" is not a legal requirement, only a liability dodge.
Green numbers, its a X26, just a red light, M 26. Im guessing also, it might be a c2 or an x26c, but we would need to see pics to know for sure.
Wouldnt be bad to sell on here...
Note that most new models also shoot "confetti" with the serial number microprinted.

New models will not work until activated by the manufacturer. Be sure you know the status of the one before offering it for sale.

they're called micro-dots
yellow blast doors- 15 foot cartridge
silver blast doors- 21 foot
green blast doors- xd probe 25 foot
orange blast doors - xd 35 foot
be careful when handling those air cartridges, and don't hold or put any part of your body in front of the blast doors. Static electricity can cause discharge.
No. It's TASER, an acronym, not a word, so it is properly spelled in all caps. Since it is not a word, TASER cannot be a verb. It stands for Thomas Alva Swift Electric Rifle.

Absolutely correct (never disagree with the boss in a public forum[:D]) and I should have put it in caps above, but this acronym has quickly grown into common usage, much like laser and other non-words such as Xerox.
Since there is generally no buttstock, and it is generally operated as a hand held device, how come it isn't a TASEP ? (Electric Pistol?)
Q. What kinds of weapons are included in the concealed weapons law?
A. The Jack Hagler Self-defense Act defines concealed weapons or firearms as follows: handguns, electronic weapons or devices, tear gas guns, knives and billies. The information provided emphasizes handguns, because they are one of the most commonly used weapons for self-defense.
I don't know; I didn't get to name the darn thing. TASEP would be more accurate, but it wouldn't "sing," now would it?
In reality, the first TASER may have been configured like a rifle. The first one I ever saw was in the mid 1970s, and it was configured like a flashlight. It actually was a flashlight. The beam was used to illuminate and aim. It had two cartridges, and no capablity of delivering a shock without firing a cartridge.
I thought, and still think, that it makes more sense to configure the TASER as something other than a pistol, so that under stress, we don't get them confused.
I don't know what model it is.....it has yellow on the sides and looks exactly like what I see the Birmingham Police wearing.
Surely you can't just buy a gun that shoots probes into someone's body and jolts them with electricity without SOME kind of permit or restrictions......???
You sell guns right, it injects lead into people.

The bloomin' thing sounds scary as crap when you turn it on.
Much like my wife. Don

Is it a X26? or X26C? the X26 is the LE issue. in some state you can not posse the X26
Tom
Swift's
a (dont know why the A is there)
Electric
Rifle
At least that is what the TASER sales guys told me.
This one is an M18
1. destroy it with a sledge hammer
2. give it back to the person that gave it to you
If that is used on someone and its defective, guess who is going to be named in the Lawsuit???
just a thought
