SAFETY
TASER X26C
devices can stop threats from up to 15 ft. (4.6 m). Or, you can use the TASER
device as a contact stun device — a powerful backup capability. In field uses by
law enforcement against dangerous suspects, TASER technology has among the
lowest injury rates of any force option. However, TASER devices are not risk
free and may cause injuries ,primarily from falls or physical exertion. Use of
TASER devices should not be undertaken lightly. Detailed product warnings are
available.
EFFECTIVE
A hit anywhere on the body can be effective with a TASER
device, making it easier to use and more reliable under stress than any other
use-of-force option.
TASER electronic control devices are field proven up to 95% effective in actual
police use — the highest of any similar device. TASER International makes the
only device that can truly incapacitate people under the influence of PCP and
other dangerous drugs. Further, a hit anywhere on the body can be effective,
making it easy to use and more reliable under stress.
EASY TO USE
TASER X26C
technology has been available to citizens
concerned with self-defense for over a decade. Unlike conventional weapons,
TASER devices are effective with a hit anywhere on the body. To be effective
for self-defense, bullets risk more lethal consequences, striking the head or
vital organs. Similarly, chemical or pepper sprays must hit an assailant in
the face — a much less reliable alternative in fast moving confrontations.
And, in a windy environment, sprays can be blown back onto the user.
TASER Personal Protection Devices can be used more effectively and reliably
than many other self-defense technologies.
LEGAL TO CARRY IN MOST STATES
TASER devices are not considered firearms by the US
Government. They can be legally carried (concealed or open) without permit
required in 43 states. Prohibited citizen use in DC, HI, MA, MI, NJ, NY,
RI, WI, certain cities and counties. CT and IL legal with restrictions. Check
local laws beore purchasing or carrying electronic control devices.
RESPONSIBILITY
We are committed to doing the most we can to prevent potential
misuse of our products.
Accordingly, we have developed an advanced TASER device tracking program called
AFID (Anti-Felon Identification). Our AFID program enforces accountability for
each use of the TASER device and has worked successfully for over a decade with
citizen sales.
Each TASER Cartridge sold for use with the TASER device has a unique serial
number. This serial number is printed in a bar code format on the back of each
TASER Cartridge. At the time the probes are packed into each TASER Cartridge,
approximately 20-30 pieces of film printed with the serial number of that TASER
Cartridge are loaded behind them. When the
TASER X26C
is deployed, these AFID tags are dispersed at the scene. The large number of
AFIDS and their small size makes it impractical to clean up. When police are
called to investigate any TASER device use, they can find these tags and contact
TASER International for a complete trace on the serial number.
No other weapon in the world — guns, knives, chemical and pepper sprays,
electronic defense units, or batons — can be traced from evidence at the scene
of the crime to the registration of the user. It all comes back to
responsibility.
LIFETIME REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE
If a TASER Personal Protection Device is used in self-defense,
it can be deployed and left behind attached to the attacker causing
incapacitation while you get to safety. Send us a copy of the police report
documenting the incident and we can replace your unit free of charge.

TASER Device - Self
Defense Article
Freddy started hanging around old man Benson's
sporting goods store when he was just
ten years old. Now sixteen, and saving up
his cash for college, he ran the cash register on
weekends when the owner took a few
hours off to spend time with his daughter
and grandkids.
Weekend afternoons were pretty quiet in the neighborhood. Most
folks did their shopping at the mall these days, though
many of the office workers still
stopped by during the week. For Freddy,
it usually meant a chance to catch up on inventory or
even the rare opportunity to get some
more homework done.
Melissa, who helped her father run the store, had spent some
time and energy upgrading the store's
security in the past few months. She
and her father didn't believe in stashing a gun behind the
counter - they didn't want to run the risk that it might
be used against them, or stolen at
night and used in some other crime.
So Melissa picked up a TASER X26C. She figured that if someone
came in and threatened her father or
one of her clerks, they could point
and shoot it just like a gun.
As the Bensons enjoyed their afternoon in the park, Freddy
caught up on some of his schoolwork.
He couldn't wait to enroll in pre-med courses that fall. As he
looked up from his textbook, he
noticed an unfamiliar figure hovering around the store. The guy
was easily a foot taller than Freddy, and weighed about
two hundred fifty pounds.
"Can I help you?" Freddy shouted.
The man darted his eyes at Freddy in between glances at the four
corners of the store.
Freddy leaned up off his chair, and asked, "Is there something I
can help you find?"
Suddenly, the man darted toward Freddy, eyes ablaze. He
bellowed, "Yeah! You can help me find
all the money in your cash register,
punk! And when you're done with that, I want you to come in to
the back room and get that safe open!"
Freddy noticed a bulge in the man's sweatshirt, and didn't want
to risk what might happen if that was any kind of weapon.
In a split second, he grabbed the
TASER Device from underneath the counter.
Freddy locked the laser sight onto his target and pulled the
trigger.
Even though the robber was still about fifteen feet away, two
small darts found their mark and channeled 50,000 volts of
electricity over the pair of wires. The criminal
collapsed, and Freddy knew from
biology class that the attacker's muscles
wouldn't stop contracting until he was stuck in the fetal
position.
After the cops and paramedics arrived, Freddy learned that the
robber was high on meth, looking for cash for a quick
score. Without the TASER X26C, who
knows what he might have done. Freddy knew
that, in that state, the guy could even have survived a
gunshot and still done some serious
damage.
Closing the store that day, he couldn't wait to swing by the
park and give Melissa the news.
It would be nice to believe that nothing will
happen to you, but the reality of it
is that an ounce of protection could be worth
more than a pound
of cure. What is Worth Protection to you? Your
belongings? Your family? Your personal well-being?
