re: #191 Iron Fist

They’ve got a new taser product coming out. It can be fired from a speciallt modified shotgun. IIRC, it’s a Mossberg. Going for the less lethal weapons. What is funny is that, if I’m reading it right civillians aren’t supposed to be able to get them.

That makes no sense. If someone breaks into my house I can shoot them with a semi-automatic rifle loaded with hollowpoints (which aren’t permitted in land warfare), and the cops will just come clean up the mess, but I can’t even own the less-lethal option. That doesn’t make a lick of sense.

We can’t have these in CA. Go figure.
