Well the state gets to appeal, but I doubt they will.

Bad news is, the liberal activist judge suggested that NY implement heavy restrictions on the ownership of them. Permitting systems only allowing them in the home or business. He actually suggested it to the state in his decision.

So not really "legal" at all...oh well.

Well the judge says PL 265.01 doesn't apply to them so for now they are legal. The legislature would have to pass a new law to make them illegal. I don't know much about the public perception of stun guns but I'd imagine legislators will move quickly to class them under PL 400.

Oh SHIT. Is this real? I will absolutely be buying one if so.

I think public perception on these will be much warmer than to firearms. Hopefully they are not too restricted.

I've owned a 650,000V taser for 2 decades. Replenish the 3 - 9v batteries it uses often, to keep it fresh & ready! Not sure what the law says and I've never looked... Not sure how a State will be able to argue restricting what 47 other states allow as acceptable common defense... FUNY!

Anyways...

Where do I get one?

First Nunchucks and now Tasers. When will they legalize a gravity knife, switchblade knife, pilum ballistic knife, metal knuckle knife, cane sword, billy, blackjack, bludgeon, plastic knuckles, metal knuckles, sand bag, sandclub, wrist-brace type slingshot or slungshot, shirken, “Kung Fu star”, dagger, dangerous knife, dirk, machete, razor, stiletto, imitation pistol, or any other dangerous or deadly instrument?

The NYS Legislature better get about banning these, or some poor criminal may get shocked while trying to sexually assault a jogger.

How dare NY citizens be able to defend themselves from criminals, this KNYS country, as in KEEP NEW YORK SHI**Y.

I highly recommend the tasers we carried down here until recently: The TASER X26 (remember, TASER is a company). It's about the size of a compact pistol and very effective (I know from experience of course).

The new one (I can't recall the model #) is the size of a full-sized handgun. It is just as effective, but not really concealable.

Remember that holster options are limited. You're basically going to have a plastic, Blackhawk-style holster outside your belt.

Damn, Amazon sells everything!

Good God those are expensive, though. Maybe I'd stick to a stun gun. I know nothing about them though.

I'll just pick up a cattle prod from Tractor Supply.

They are pretty expensive. I'm sure the PD's get a discount for buying in bulk. Just remember that there is a HUGE difference. Stun guns are purely pain compliance, which means that a hyped-up, violent aggressor will most likely be able to overcome the effects. Not to mention, you have to actually touch them to operate a stun gun.

TASERS operate via nervous system disruption. A 22 year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger can be charging at you full-speed and if you land a solid hit, he's going down.

I thought I would test this (AMAZON), since a while back I tried to buy a knife from them. Time after time, knife after knife, I was told it couldn't ship to my address in Upstate, NY.
Same for Tasers unforunately...

ya I know, but my point was that Amazon is very shy of certain items being sold in NY.

I am in Florida now house shopping , Before I leave I will price out a stun gun

GOYABEAN · Mar 23, 2019

Regarding on this post has anyone had any New info on @smurfette issues with her apartment intruder I know she wanted to legally purchase pepper spray or something that would be non lethal

Hope she's safe and in good health :headbang:

Cerakoted · Mar 25, 2019

So either the x26c or the taser pulse. Which one you guys think would be better? Thinking the x26c because of the rechargable batteries...As soon as i see it in writing gonna make the purchase

GoodGuywitha9mm · Mar 25, 2019

VIPERTEK VTS-195 53 Billion Heavy Duty Stun Rechargeable LED Tactical Flashlight = $15

What's the point of rechargeable batteries when the cartridge firing the darts needs to be replaced after firing it anyway ?

I'd think you'd want batteries with the max shelf life, not rechargeability.
