How a Police Stun Gun Can Curb Assaults
Stun guns are among non-lethal weapons that law enforcement officers carry, often as a matter of policy. When force must be escalated because verbal discipline would not suffice, yet deadly force is not called for, a police stun gun is preferable to pain control holds and takedown techniques such as striking someone. Using his arms leaves the officer open to an attack. With a non-lethal weapon, he can contain the attack without injuring or killing the attacker, and not endangering himself in the process.
Once a stun gun expels an electric shock into the body, the recipient becomes unable to move his muscles or keep his balance for about 30 minutes. This creates an opportunity for any outlaw’s would-be victim to race away and call the cops.
Very effective in curbing assaults are stun batons such as the Stun Master Night Baton. Being batons that function as electric guns, these are longer than all other stun guns. As the extended reach creates some distance between the opposing parties, the assailed can get to the assaulter before this situation can be reversed.
Extendable stun batons are designed to elongate or collapse at the mere flick of a wrist. These do more than extend your arm span. Lengthened, they extend longer than baton stun guns with fixed lengths. Shortened, they are portable and no trouble to take with you. The Stun Master telescopic stun baton shoots from 13 out to 21.5 inches long, and the metal portion is entirely electrified.
Similarly reliable tools for maintaining order are high voltage stun guns, which unleash electricity in excess of a million volts. Either the 10 million volt Runt rechargeable stun gun or the 11 million volt Hot Shot stun gun can no doubt floor a wrongdoer fast within a few shots.
Any police stun gun for civilian use is subject to the law. In the U.S., a person must be 18 years old or older to be allowed to purchase a stun gun, and such a purchase must be legal in his state and city or country of residence.
