Amid rising mental health crises, police increasingly deploy stun guns to subdue individuals. Advocates call for careful use and expanded training to balance safety and humane treatment during encounters.

Properly storing your stun gun ensures safety and quick access in emergencies. Keep it in a secure, locked container away from children and moisture. Regularly check batteries and follow manufacturer guidelines for optimal care.

Arizona has enacted new legislation restricting stun gun sales to individuals under 19 years old, aiming to enhance public safety and reduce misuse among minors. Retailers must now verify buyers’ ages before purchase.

Replacing damaged stun gun parts requires care and precision. Always unplug the device, use manufacturer-approved components, and follow safety guidelines to avoid injury. Regular maintenance ensures your stun gun remains effective and reliable.
