TASR XREP Neuro Muscular Incapacitation Shotgun

Have you seen any episodes of that TV series COPS lately? Well I actually enjoy watching that series a lot. I think it is great reality television and a lot more interesting than many other reality shows.

The reason I bring it up is because a lot of times on that show you will see cops using their taser guns to stun criminals.  There has been a lot of controversy over the use of these stun guns but the company TASR is still in business and innovating as well.  This new product they just came out with is called the XREP.

Basically it does the same thing as their original TASR guns, essentially incapacitating the would be criminal with an electric shock.  However this shotgun has a significantly longer maximum range of 100 feet.

The battery supply is integrated into the projectile and gives sufficient power for it to reach the maximum range.  The projectile generates the neuro muscular incapacitation (NMI) for 20 straight seconds.  As the chassis breaks apart, six electrodes are activated to deliver the shock over a greater body mass.

Now I don’t know about you, but just the look of those electrodes has me thinking that I DO NOT want to be on the wrong side of the law anytime soon!  Talk about having a bad day. Geez.  Don’t run from the law if you don’t want to be on the receiving end of this thing.
