Protect yourself With the Advanced Taser M18l
Today in the news there is a lot of controversy about the use of Stun Guns and Advanced Tasers. How much do you know about Tasers? Have you considered whether this versatile option is the right self defense tool for you? Do you think that Tasers are more ideal for police verses the Glock 9mm? This article will help educate you on the important facts of Taser use and help you to decide if a Taser can help keep you safe, brought to you by http://www.protection-power.com.
The new Advanced Taser M-18 series has almost 100% effectiveness rating. It combines the injury reducing benefits of traditional stun technology with a quantum leap in stopping power via new Electro-Muscular Disruption (EMD) technology. In police studies, the new Advanced Taser has a higher instant incapacitation rate than a 9mm hand gun. The Advanced Taser shoots out 2 darts attached to 15 feet of wire. 50,000 volts travel over the wires and over-rides the central nervous system providing incredible take down power.
NEW Electro-Muscular Disruption (EMD) Technology
There are two categories of energy weapons: Stun weapons and EMD weapons.
STUN WEAPONS: Traditional stun technology weapons operate in a 7-14 Watt range and interfere with the communication signals within the nervous system of the target. These stun systems primarily effect the sensory nervous system. Like static on the communication lines between the brain and the body, stun systems interfere with the human command and control systems. However, a small percentage of people with a very high tolerance for electrical stimulation can fight through the effect of these 7-14 Watt systems.
EMD WEAPONS: EMD weapons use a more powerful 18 to 26 Watt electrical signal to completely override the central nervous system and directly control the skeletal muscles. This EMD effect causes an uncontrollable contraction of the muscle tissue, allowing the M-Series to physically debilitate a target regardless of pain tolerance or mental focus. The ADVANCED TASER M-Series are EMD weapons — specifically designed to stop even the most elite, aggressive, focused combatants. Rather than simply interfering with communication between the brain and muscles, the ADVANCED TASER EMD systems directly tell the muscles what to do: contract until the target is in the fetal position on the ground.
How the TASER® M18L works:
Arming and firing the TASER® M18L is an almost instinctive motion which can be easily accomplished without even looking down. You can practice by doing it without a cartridge in the weapon. Firing the weapon without a cartridge will light the laser sight and arc high voltage sparks across the front of the barrel like an ordinary stun gun. You can also test fire the TASER® with a cartridge in the barrel by aiming at a piece of aluminum foil attached to a wall from a distance of up to 15 feet. The TASER® M18L comes with 4 cartridges for that purpose. Each cartridge fires only once. Never practice on another person. The TASER® is a very serious weapon.
There is a safety lever on both sides of the weapon for easy thumb release by both right and left-handed persons. The safety will not accidentally disengage in a pocket or purse under normal circumstances. The safety action and trigger action is simple and instinctive. Releasing the safety also simultaneously activates the laser sight. The laser sight increases the deterrence value of the weapon since an attacker’s reaction might be to turn and run when they see the laser sight pointed at them. Most important is that the laser sight virtually insures you won’t miss.
The cartridge fires once and both projectiles must hit the subject’s body or clothing. The projectiles have barbed hooks that embed themselves in clothing or under the skin about 1/2 inch. These projectiles must sometimes be surgically removed. As a short-range weapon, the maximum range is 15 feet. Both projectiles must hit, and the projectiles spread out somewhat as the distance to the subject increases. Therefore accuracy is greater at a distance of 5 to 10 feet. Fire from a safe distance, but remember that the closer you are, the less likely you are to miss. The TASER® is a single-shot weapon. The cartridge must be replaced after firing in order to fire again at a distance. However if you do miss, or if there is a second attacker, the TASER® will continue to function on contact like an ordinary stun gun, even if you do not have time to replace or remove the spent cartridge.
The TASER® M18 and M18L (L is the laser sight model) will bring down an attacker 99 times out of a hundred. It is an extremely rugged and dependable weapon. It is identical in design principle to what law enforcement
