Are tasers & stun guns legal in maryland?

They are legal under state law, but there are restrictions. Maryland’s law on tasers is relatively new (and was passed after a COP killed a guy accidentally with one, go figure) and is under the Criminal Code §4–109.

Basically, to have one, you have to be at least 18 years old and cannot have prior convictions for a violent crime or a drug crime.

The same law also sets restrictions on who can sell them to you. The seller is required by law to provide an instruction manual or video, has to keep a record of your personal information when you buy it that you are the owner, and has to perform a criminal background check on you before they can sell it. While this law applies to the seller and not you the buyer per se, it does make it more difficult to buy them. Most stores do not have the capability to run background checks except gun shops (and I don’t know if gun shops do it for Tasers). This means you usually have to buy them directly from Taser International. This sales restriction also means that stun guns (the cheap ones you have to touch to your attacker) basically cannot be sold in the state because they don’t have records systems at their manufacturers.

Several counties within Maryland have ordinances against possessing or carrying them, however, so you also have to check your county code. Anne Arundel is one I believe.

The best place to buy a TASER from is at Amazon.com. Your personal safety is of paramount importance and for as low as $10 you can have a stun gun for your protection.

Stun guns require you to be in close proximity of your attacker but are much cheaper alternative than a genuine TASER

The use a safe amount of electricity in the safe shape as a nerve impulse to effect sensory and motor control nerves. The essentially cause the body to “lock up.” The TASER C2 is designed to be used an attacker and left behind. The “ride” is 30 seconds – giving you plenty of time to escape.

TASER devices are electroshock weapons that use electrical current to disrupt muscle control, stopping an attacker dead in their tracks.

TASER devices can be used both close and far range. Upon firing, TASER devices shoot two metal probe darts a distance of 15 feet to reach an attacker before he reaches you. The TASER can also be used as a direct contact stun gun, allowing for close proximity self defense.

TASER International, Inc. is the only company that manufactures TASERs. Their products are the only ones bearing the TASER trademark. TASERs are non-lethal weapons that use harmless electrical shocks to disrupt the target’s nervous system. While being shocked, the target has no control over his skeletal muscles and simply falls down.

TASERs are one of the best options to control another person but if your budget does not allow then a stun gun is a great option.

They can be carried in Maryland no problems at all. Stun-Guns and Tasers are prohibited for citizen use in the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island and their use in Connecticut, Illinois, and Wisconsin is only legal with certain restrictions.

You’ll never be concerned with the Patriot Self Defense program you will think it is here https://tr.im/2AV5m .

The Patriot Self Defense program is just a very straightforward and to follow. You don’t need to be a genius or some sort of martial arts specialist because this program is good for the average guy.

    A massive thing may be the savings presented here. If you were to take self-defense classes or hire a trainer of some type, you’d spend thousands and thousands more than you may spend here to have the exact same degree of information and all this easily , in your own home at your own personal time.
