Its an alright idea, I see some negative sides of it too though. I still like the whole, you resist, you meet the Taser deal.

Not a bad idea, but it looks a little bulky and difficult to carry to be practical. I don't think the concept will go very far, but who knows.

To me it looks like something that will probably go farther in corrections than LE.

Never thought of that but yeah. Then again, I don't know many DOC's or SD that carry any type of baton

Another martial arts gadget rookies and wannabes will buy. ;) I see one major problem with the thing. You have to use both hands. The subject still has one free.
Anyone remember that bent hairpin/cattail looking thing from a few years back? That was supposed to be the end-all ultimate restraint tool too.Last edited by Johninaustin; 04-22-08 at 11:32 AM.

Tazer is great when used properly, takes the fight out of the badguy and most importantly officer doesnt get hurt.

I wouldn't buy this, I would stick with the Taser, and my ASP Baton!

Probably once you got the habit with the defender, you would switch to it instead of the asp
1. If you have a good case, try to compromise; if you have a bad one, take it to court!
2. Wait until it is night before saying it has been a fine day!
3. Whatever accomplishment you boast of in the world, there is someone better than you.
4. Walter or a Glock always beat four aces
5. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
6. Know each other as if your were brothers; negotiate deals as if you were strangers to each other.
