Legal Information on the Air Taser®
Description: Below are the legal codes of record to the company
regarding the AIR TASER.
Note: none of these laws were passed with respect to the AIR TASER.
These laws pre-date the AIR TASER and were passed regarding stun guns.
However, since the AIR TASER can function in a touch stun mode, it is
covered by these applicable laws:
CONNECTICUT: Legal w/
restrictions Connecticut Criminal Law Title 53 ˇV Crimes, Title 53a ˇV
Penal Code, title 54 Criminal Procedure, Chapter 950 Section 53a-3
Definitions: (20) "Electronic defense weapon" means a weapon which by
electronic impulse or current is capable of immobilizing a person
temporarily, but is not capable of inflicting death or serious injury.
ˇ±53-206. Carrying and sale of dangerous weapons a. Any person who
carries upon his personˇK electronic defense weapon, as defined in
53a-3, or any other dangerous or deadly weapon or instrument, unless
such person has been granted a written permit issued and signed by the
first selectman of a town, the mayor or chief of police of a city or
the warden of a borough, authoring such person to carry such weapon or
instrument within such city or borough, shall be fined not more than
five hundred dollars or imprisoned not more than three years or both.
No permit shall be issued to any applicant who has ever been convicted
of a felony. The issuing authority may request the applicantˇ¦s finger
prints and full information concerning his criminal record and make an
investigation concerning his criminal record and make an investigation
concerning the suitability of the applicant to carry any such weapon.
Refusal of fingerprinting by the applicant shall be sufficient cause to
refuse issuance of a permit. Whenever any person is found guilty of a
violation of this subsection, any weapon or other implement within the
provisions hereof, found upon the body of such person, shall be
forfeited to the municipality wherein such person was apprehended, not
withstanding any failure of the judgment of conviction to expressly
impose such forfeiture. Any person who has been granted a permit to
carry any martial arts weapon pursuant to this section may carry such
weapon anywhere within the state. The provisions of this subsection
shall not apply to any officer charged with the preservation of the
public peace nor to any person who is found with any such weapon or
implement concealed upon his person while lawfully removing his
household goods or effects from one place to another, or from one
residence to another, nor to any person while actually and peaceably
engaged in carrying any such weapon or implement from his place of
abode or business to a place or person where or by whom such weapon or
implements is to be repaired, or while actually and peaceable returning
to his place of abode or business with such weapon or implement after
the same has been repaired. (b) any person who sells to anotherˇK
electronic defense weapon, as defined in section 53a-3, shall, within
twenty-four hours after the deliver of such weapon or implement to the
person to whom sold, give written notice of such sale or delivery,
specifying the article sold and the name and address of the person to
whom sold or delivered, to the chief of police of the city, the warden
of the borough or the first selectman of the town, within which such
weapon or implement is sold or delivered, as the case may be. Any
person who violates any provision of this subsection shall be fined not
more than one hundred dollars. SUMMARY: Section 53-206(a) prohibits the
carrying of an AIR TASER on the person unless that person has obtained
a dangerous weapons permit. However, there are no state-wide permits,
only local permits ˇV the permit is only good in that particular town
and would be illegal elsewhere. Any one selling such a weapon must
notify the chief of police with that information within 24 hours of the
delivery. Therefore the AIR TASER can be sold and it can be kept in
your place of business or home, but you cannot carry on your person
without a permit which is only good within the limits of the city in
which it was issued.

OVERVIEW OF NEW STATUTES AFFECTING AIR TASER IN FLORIDA
In
May 1997, the Florida legislature passed HB 379 and became law. HB 379
allows certain remote stun guns and pepper sprays to be carried in the
"open" and "concealed." The AIR TASER falls under this open/concealed
carry law as it meets specific parameters set by this new statute. „h
The remote stun must fire no more than 16 feet (the AIR TASER fires
only 15 feet) „h The remote stun gun must utilize an identification and
tracking system that upon use, disperses coded material traceable to
the purchaser through records kept by the manufacturer (AIR TASER,
Inc.) on all remote stun gun and all individual cartridges sold (Air
Cartridges). The Anti-Felon Identification system meets this parameter.
NOTE:
The statute affects dealers and owners of the AIR TASER. To carry a
remote stun gun (AIR TASER) in the open or concealed, the remote stun
gun (AIR TASER) must be registered with our company. That means that
the Anti-Felon Identification cards on the AIR TASER box must be on
file with AIR TASER, Inc. If the remote AIR TASER is not registered it
cannot be carried.

Justice. Chapter 39-1. Prohibited weapons and devices. (Section r
summarized from Chapter 2C:39-1) "Weapon" means anything readily
capable of lethal use or of inflicting serious bodily injury. The term
includes, but is no limited to all (4) stun guns; and any weapon or
(this section refers to tear gas and has been updated in 1995) other
device which projects, releases, or emits tear gas or any other
substance intended to produce temporary physical discomfort or
permanent injury through being vaporized or otherwise dispensed in the
air. (t) "Stun gun" means any weapon or other device which emits an
electrical charge or current intended to temporarily or permanently
disable a person. Senate, No. 2871 -- L.1985, c. 360 Senate Bill No.
2781, as amended by the Senate Law, Public Safety and Defense
Committee, prohibits as a crime of the fourth degree the possession of
a stun gun by any person, including a law enforcement officer. A crime
of the fourth degree carries a penalty of imprisonment for up to 18
months, a fine of up to $7,500, or both. Prior to being amended the
bill classified possession of a crime in the third degree. {Editorˇ¦s
Note: According to Len Lawson of NJ Legislative Council, (609)
292-4625) NJ does not classify crimes in felonies versus misdemeanors.
The highest crimes are in first degree on down to fourth degree. A
fourth degree penalty is a serious charge and is generally considered a
misdemeanor in common terms. It is however an indictable offense. A
fourth degree crime does contain "a presumption of non-custodial
sentencing;" meaning that there is not imprisonment if there are no
prior convictions. In some cases the sentencing is obviated from oneˇ¦s
record if there is a period of good behavior following the charge.} The
committee amended the bill to include a provision authorizing the
Attorney General, at his discretion, to exempt law enforcement officers
from the prohibition against possession stun guns. The bill was also
amended by the committee to include stun guns in the definition of
"weapon" in paragraph r. N.J.S. 2C:39-1. (Chapter 2C:39-1) (h) Stun
guns. Any person who knowingly has in his possession any stun gun is
guilty of a crime in the fourth degree. SUMMARY: Possession is banned
