Sounds like a very interesting concept. Just a few informational
questions/comments, which I will direct to Taser at a later date.
Taser indicates effective range of 100 yards. Only if you can hit the
target. Effective range for a .12 slug from an unrifled barrel is 50-60
yards for a good shot, and at that distance you aim 12-18" higher than
point of impact.
Taser recommends a body shot. What is velocity of round at 5', 10', 20'
(more likely distances for self defense)? Would it potentially be
lethal for a head shot at close distance?
Will the electrodes penetrate heavy clothing? Is direct skin contact
necessary, or can the charge be generated through, for instance, a
leather jacket?
These, and other questions I am sure I will think up, aside, I really
like the idea, especially the combo Sealubber suggested.
