Yes!! We need these in our dept. Great tool to have on the belt.

I love these things, beats pepper spray, Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzt!

AWESOME! During training this thing put me down, I know that the X-26 is no joke.

The TASER X-26 is without a doubt the greatest tool ever invented for Law Enforcement. I carry this on duty every night and it has never failed me.

I agree, great tool if used properly. The spark test still makes me jump and remember when it dropped my big ass on the floor. Made a great video though!

Absolutely the best tool on my duty belt. Much like the sound of a shotgun being racked, the simply motion of drawing this item from its holster has quelled many a volatile situation.

A must have for all police agencies! Easy to use and packs a punch! Everyone needs this tool on your belt while working!

At first I didn't like the idea of using electricity to control someone, but after my certification class on electronic control devices I definitely changed my mind. I feel this product is by far a more effective tool than OC Spray. The X26 is easy to use and does an excellent job of controlling a combative subject.

The X26 is compact and fits snug on the officrs duty belt without taking up a lot of room. There are several styles of holsters available for this taser. Don't leave the office with out it.

Great tool..to have in your toolbox...Once you pull it out ..most drop to the ground..Much more effective than OC..

Although it is more debilitating than OC, the X26 doesnt share it's lasting effects. Had my ride, it pissed me off more than anything. Works good enough just as a visual deterrent.
X= instant compliance

i am a teser instructor . i think this is the best non leathal device yet

Thank God for it has saved countless lives and prevented alot of injuries to the good guy.

I WISH I HAD ONE

Don't carry one but, have been zapped by one by my over zealous drunk friends.

It worked. Even on my drunk @ss.

Love this tool . Great power and size recommend for all offices.

Best Tool that has been made for Law enforcement in a long time Ride the Lighting

This is a good tool that needs to be add to all agencies arsenals.

Since the very first day I was issued the Taser X-26 I have not wacked anyone with my ASP baton. I can’t remember the last time I even used it. The Taser X-26 not only is very effective in apprehending the uncooperative suspects it also saves you a lot of creative writing when it comes to filling out the use of force reports.

Excellent tool! It works while limiting injuries to the suspect and the officer.

I have seen these in action. All I have to say is......God I wish I had one for the Detention Center.

This is an amazing life saving tool!!!! I served in Iraq for eight and a half months last year. My job was to run the Special Housing Unit (SHU) for the largest concentration of detainees (terrorists that are awaiting trial) in the world (approximately 15,000-20,000). My people and I had numerous physical altercations and contact on a daily basis and less than lethal force was the only option available for officer protection. I am certified by DoD to use the TASER X26e and will stand by it's effectiveness as a life saving tool (not a life taking weapon as some politicians both in uniform and out have said). The various cartridges allow for different uses as far as distance goes. The laser sight allows the officer to track his target even during take downs. The best feature I think is the ability to convince the subject that they really should comply with every and all commands/directions given. By removing the cartridge and pulling the trigger, you can display the current they will feel should they continue to resist. As long as I (or one of my people) used the TASER X26, none of my people or the detainees were ever injured. A bright red dot on your chest, or the display of active current along with the warning that it will be used are strong arguments to 'stop resisting' (which incidentally was our unit motto over there).

I have used this tool multiple times and love the effect it has on suspects. The general response from the bad guy is, "I will do what ever you want, just don't shoot me with that thing again!" It makes a believer out of anyone who is exposed to it, quickly......

The X-26 Taser is one of the best tools at our disposal as Detention Officers. I have used it several times to bring a situation under control quickly. The use of the Taser has helped us to avoid injuries to officers and inmates by eliminating the need to get into a Polyester Pile Up when dealing with a disorderly subject. It has been an excellent tool and one that most inmates want to avoid.

The X-26 is one Bad Mofo!!!!

I agree with this taser, it is totally awesome! it takes down people and leaves them there for a few seconds

The X26 is worth every penny, I would hate to go without it.

Used it twice on a male subject and four times on dogs. Works great on dogs. Male subject continued to fight after five seconds. Also requires too much paperwork after deploying.

nice to have but the M26 is just as effective and about $300 less.

Three words says it all
I LOVE IT

1st a disclaimer, I'm a Taser Master Instructor and am a little biased, BUT in 30+ years on the job this is by far the best tool ever to subdue suspects.

i want one just so i can shoot something with it and watch it twitch. i won't kill it though don't worry. i hope.

This TASER is department issue where I am at. It fits good in your hand and is extremely accurate. I wish we'd had these years ago.

I love it. All you have to do is act like your going to pull it out and you usually get compliance. Although there are a few who "Forgot" and get to ride the wave a second time.

As they told me in Instructor School - "If they bought the ticket to ride the Taser Tron, don't deny them the full ride." I'd take the probes any day of the week and twice on Sunday over spray!!! Can't wait for the XRep to be on the market!!

It is the best thing they could have for law enforcement. Officers new best friend

EXTREMELY EFFECTIVE TOOL!! WORKS ON THE PHYSICAL AND MENTAL ASPECTS OF THE HUMAN BODY. I KNOW, I REFUSE TO GET ZAPPED AGAIN!!!!

I work in a jail. I would much rather use this tool than pepperspray. If you have been on the job long enough you know very well that alot people do not react to some pepperspray. The X-26 Tazer will incapcitate you for five seconds so that you can restrain the suspect.

OVER THE TIME THAT I HAVE WORKED IN CORRECTIONS I HAVE NEVER SEEN A MORE EFFECTIVE TOOL. O.C. SPRAY WILL WORK TO AN EXTENT BUT THE X-26 IS THE BEST TOOL THAT ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT OR CORRECTIONS OFFICER CAN HAVE AS A NON LETHAL WEAPON. IT WORKS WONDERS

Just hope that you hit em with both of the barbs otherwise youre gonna have problems. This piece of equiptment will drop cattle. It works as good as you use it.

I simply love this piece of equipment. This is the best thing that has come out for the defence law enforcement officers. I have used this tool numerous times and glad to carry it on my belt. Wouldn't leave home without it.

In my opinion, one of the best tools to come to law enforcement in a long time ( as long as I dont have to get shot again ). hehe

As an instructor for our department I can't say enough about the X26. It's easier to handle compared to the M26 and still kicks a punch. If your department hasn't gone to the Taser I would highly recommed it. You don't have to fire it to get someone's attention. Once you pull it out of your holster and the subject see's you've got one, he usually complies, quickly.

Tasers are awesome. My new department currently doesn't have them and I think they are tired of hearing me praise this tool every chance I get!!! I'm hoping that we get some this coming year. I hate being on the road without one!

We aquired this at our Agency over 2 years ago. Specifically within the jail, it has had a dramatic effect in gaining compliance of hostile inmates. That "little red dot" is enough for the majority to understand the consequences of poor choices. Having "rode the lightning" myself, I can tell you I do not want to experience it again. It can deliver another cycle at the first notice of non-compliance or maintain a constant pulse incapacitating the subject until further back up can arrive.

This particular product has a unique way of gaining compliance from non-compliant individuals very quickly by shocking the living shit out of them!

Only thing I can say about the Taser is.. Thank you for making it.

if im correct the new desgin in the taser is diffrent from older taser that use sheer pain to kncock a man over but you can just shrug that off so in the new taser that have new technolgy where is shuts down teh centrel nervous system for the 5 seconds so basiclly your body no long belongs to you so its a very good product

cant wait to get one! heard alot of great things about it.

The X-26 Taser is an awesome tool to carry. The word gets out when your department begins to carry the Taser and your use of force goes way down. I trust this product to work when I need it. Nine times out of ten when you put the red dot (laser) on the perp you usually get the results you need. If not light’em up!!! They will have 50K reasons to do what you ask!

I have used this product seven times as of last night. This little locomotive really hits hard, nothin better than selling a 50,000 Volt ride of lightining!

love this product it's a great new tool for us. nothing like letting the bad guy ride the lightning!

I had the pleasure of carring this when I worked in TX. I loved it alot. When I pulled it out got complete complicance with it everytime. Never had to actually deploy it on anyone.

Got to be the best tool we have had in the 23 years I have been in law enforcement.

I have seen it in action and I have been hit with an older form of the taser. My only two questions are: Are they civilian legal? and Where and for how much can I get one for my shop?

By far the BEST tool (not weapon) I have on my belt!

Great tool for anyone in any field in law enforcement. I am in detention and just the threat of using the taser if plenty to calm down an unruly inmate. The media saying that this product is cruel and is killing people need to be shot with it and then sprayed with OC spray and they can decide which one is worse.

Wonderful product, effective and easy to use. The laser pointer and bright LED are a great addition. The record keeping abilities is also a great addition as well. Great product and a must have for the duty belt.

A very effective tool that limis officer injury a must have on any LE duty rig

I have carried this weapon for the last four years and it by far been one of the most valuable tools we have to reducing force encounters. I have drawn my taser approx. 10-11 times in four years and have gained compliance without having to discharge it.
To RGM, there is a civilan model available. It's called the C2 and is available at a number of sporting goods stores and police supply stores. The C2 has a 30 second discharge that uses a staggered pulse rate. I have gone through a class where the C2 was demonstrated. It reails for around $350.00 and replacement cartridges are sold in a two-pack for around $50.00. Taser Intl. does require resgistration to activate the unit as well as registering the cartridges. The C2 is available in four colors: metallic pink, silver, blue and black. It is designed to be concealable in a pocket or purse. You can view the C2 on Taser's web site.

I just received my Instructors certification on Feb. 7, 2008. I took a 5 second ride and it's no joke. I never felt the probes strike my leg but when the current started, it was the longest 5 seconds that I had no control over my body. I just wanted it to stop. I just purchased my personal Taser X26 and will be teaching my Chief and other officers from neighboring agencies very soon. Great Product to carry for compliance!

IM A TASER INSTRUCTOR....IT TOTALLY IMPRESSED ME THE FIRST TIME I SAW IT USED. UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAD AN IN-CUSTODY DEATH AFTER USING THE TASER, BUT IT WORKED AS PROMISED, THE SUBJECT WAS SUFFERING FROM EXCITED DELIRIUM. EVEN THOUGH THE SUBJECT DIED, HE WOULD HAVE INJURED HIMSELF AND OTHERS FIRST IF THE TASER HADN'T BEEN USED. HE WOULD HAVE DIED ANYWAY....HIS INTERNAL BODY TEMPERATURE WAS THROUGH THE ROOF. I HAVE USED IT SINCE AND IT HAS WORKED MIRACULOUSLY IN GAINING COMPLIANCE.

As a Defensive Tactics Instructor and a TASER instructor, I am impressed with this product. It is not only effective, but is a major Deterrent when even seen on ones belt. Once a Department adopts the use of this weapon and the first couple of deployements occur, the word gets out fast amoung the criminal element, as to how effective it is...

Great device, much more effective than OC, and a great alternative to lethal force.

Very effective tool. Much more reliable that OC. We have had great success with these at our department. I have personally not had the pleasure of using it yet, but there are plenty more "fish in the sea" who can't wait to afford us the opportunity. Seems like a lot of people ask for it though... I mean literally taunt us yelling "TASE ME... COME ON... TASE ME!" Little do they know that I can't wait for the opportunity to grant their request...

Certain people chant and asked to get tased, but I also notice quick compliance from people who have seen it, simply when they hear the rip of the velcro holster fastener. I'm glad to carry it.

Best thing to happen to law enforcement since the mobile radio. Every single police officer in the world should have one on their belt. Built well by a company that not only cares about police officers, they listen to them.

An awesome tool. However, it is not the fix it all tool. When used like it is intended, it can save lives and injuries.

Local guy tried to do suicide by cop holding a knife. He got 5 seconds of voltage and and is still alive. Had this happened before the X26 he would have been shot.

.

I am a instructor for the m26 and x26 taser. The x26 is by far my favorite of the two and is a great tool. I have deployed the taser in the classroom and in the field and have yet to find an individual that it didn't work on. I recommend the extended DPM for the spare cartridge. The attatchment for the holster holds two extra cartridges but is way too bulky and takes up too much room on your belt. I am not a fan of the endoskelton holster because of the way it releases. Other than that I would recommend the x26 to everyone. I wont be caught without it.

Best decision ever made, should be standard issue in every agency.

My previous department had these and they worked perfectly. I am doing everything I can to get my new department to utilize these.

Has svaed me from wrestling with many people on the side of the road or in the bar

With properly placed darts....it will "drop 'em" as advertized.

very effective..not many problems with breakage.

I have had my for about two years and only used it twice, but thank god I had it when I did. This product is the best this since sliced bread. Wish we had one for every one on our department.

you know its bad when you walk in SGT's office and get shocked from behind!! man this thing surly has a BITE!!!

One of the most impressive products i've seen in my 23 years on the job! I just got mine last week and looking back there are a probably a couple dozen time that it would have been "just what the doctor ordered." I don't think I'll be using it a lot, nor will I change my demeanor toward the public just because I have one.

Best thing to come along in a long time. I think it's better than pepper spray. Word has gotten out about tasers and when people see the "red dot" they know it's time to calm down or they'll be riding the lightning. Great tool for law enforcement, cuts down on officer injuries and workers comp. claims.

I cannot wait to add one to my belt. Its just another tool to utilize in this line of work, and I've heard nothin but good from those that carry them now.

Great tool both in drive-stun and probe contact.

I have had 2 X26 deployments and it has worked perfectly both times. It also works well at scaring vicious canines we encounter on the street by just dry firing at them.

This is a great tool in our arsenol, only problem I have is the size, we've recently added the cameras to ours and the x26 went from a great size to "too big for my belt" like the m26 was. It seems they could have incorporated the camera into the light system somehow to maintain the small compact size.

Outstanding tool, takes out suspects very easily with less danger to officers

Two words. WHOOOO HOOOO!!!!!!!!! If you have ever had to ride the lightning, you will know that this tool has got to be one of the most effective in our arsonal. I find it to be the best option to less lethal force out there!

I'll give the X-26 a 5 over the M series. The X-26 is by far a better Taser. There are several other brands coming out that will be more efective. One that shoots .68 caliber balls, The Taser Cartridge, A high Lumen light, Laser and video cam combined a lot on a handheld unit but great for court proceedings but for now the X-26 has my vote.

this taser works extreamly well I recently went through a taser class where we used the X-26 and I was fortunate enough to get hit with it and it isnt a joke they say it is a 5 second ride well it feels like you are getting the shock of your life for atleast 15 seconds and with the older M-26 wich has more of a donkey kick when it hits you this one I couldnt even think about moving till the ride was over, this product is well worth the rating.

I have carried both the m-26 and the x-26. The x-26 is far superior and works as advertised, what more can you say.

send a badass shock through anybodys body

Great item! good things do come in small packages! The light and laser are an added bonus! Don't leave home without it

Bad to the bone!!!

I love it! I carried the M26 which was just to bulky and had to be recharged. This taser has lots of benefits. Great for females due to being more compact, doesn't need to be charged and has a digital display to tell you how much battery is left

I don't have one and have not used one but when I get on with a department I want one. However, I have noticed from the videos on here that they arebextremely effective.

I like this weapon but it's not near as spicy as the M-26! I do like the design of this weapon better it just doesn't seem to have as much juice!

No lasting physical effects, but the mental effect will last a lifetime. DON'T TAZE ME BRO!!!

No lasting physical effects, but the mental effect will last a lifetime. DON'T TAZE ME BRO!!!

Must have for any department.

I have never used it, but hear plenty and would love to get my hands on it to tase some ass!~

Excellant tool for law enforcement. It helps you maintain distance when dealing with a violent suspect. This tool has worked everytime it has been deployed by my department.

This is a wonderful addition to an officers equipment. Just the mere fact of having it will stop most minimal resistance. Just be careful with it as it does not discriminate.

it can shoot a long distances but dose not work so hot in windy conductions

Excellent product. I have carried the M26 and it was just too big the X26 is by far the best choice for police work. Kudos!!!

BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD.

Not perfect but is an excellent tool on the belt and good option for a lot of situations. I've found that often just the sight of a Taser gains compliance from subjects that are considering resisting or being assaultive.

Awesome tool to have with you. Very effective and causes less side effects than OC spray.

Excellent tool for patrol officers. Every department should have them.

EXCELLENT..........especially for us county boys that are out all night by ourselves.

This is a great tool...it wasn't my favorite thing to be shot with....but great to use on someone else!

The best thing since sliced bread. One of the best tools developed for Law Enforcement in a very very long time. Many a suspect have complied quickly when the Taser comes out. They will want to fight until that little red dot is on their chest.

It never fails. 90% of the time putting the laser dot on the chest stops em cold; No deployment necessary. It's that go-between from blunt weapons to deadly force. Great tool for the belt. I use it all the time.

NO OFFICER SHOULD BE WITHOUT IT,THE BIGGEST EDGE GIVEN TO OFFICERS IN THE PAST TWENTY YEARS.

I get to carry one of these every day at work. Gotta say, I love it, point the red dot at who you want to do something, and presto, it happens. Magic red dot I call it.

GREAT TOOL

I have carried this item for a few years now, I believe it has saved many officers and civilians from serious injury and no officer should be without one.

Great product. There is quite a bit of controversy here in Canada, because of a couple of high profile deaths, but they have saved Officers.

Because of the compliance you get with the x-26, I've got alot of respect for the weapon.. I'm uh? " suvivor"

This taser is a great tool whether you are on patrol or responding to a violent inmate in the jail. It saves everyone from getting injured.

Great tool to have on your sam brown.

Alot less hands on with people who mite have something next to my Glock 22 it is the best tool I have.

All I can say is I was out on my own maybe about a month, an intoxicated/stoned (maybe both) guy covered in blood charged me saying he was going to kill me. I almost dropped a load in my pants, but this tool dropped him before i could stain my uniform. Worked beautifully and highly recommend it for any department.

Simply awesome.

It works and it is compact. Very effective, and that is the bottom line.

x-26 works great and is duty belt friendly another words not to big right size for patrol officers
very nice taser.

This is the best tool of choice when your subject wishes to resist. No need for pepper spray!! When you get a chance during training I suggest to take the ride.

Wether you hit them with the darts or go for a drive stun, this is a great tool. I have seen it take down a guy through his backpack...shouldn't have ran. Just the laser dot alone is enough of a mental game to make them no think twice. Taser, taser, taser!

A pretty good product although I've had a few problems with them. I'm on my second one now but has helped save me in he past.

excellent tool, i know from taking the ride during training that it can knock you down.

very good product, we have the camera also. the taser works we are just starting to use them in our dept. highly recommend them to any leo.

With everyone else around us getting these, it would be nice if we could get some some day.

We carry the X26 and so far I have been impressed with it. I have had to drive stun several people and actually shoot the probes twice. One of the calls where we ended up tasing the guy was a mental subject who had taken over a local BP gas station, weilding a butcher knife. He was not close enough that lethal force was needed, nor was he lunging at us, but the taser worked perfectly. Myself and another Officer tased him at the same time from two angles and he hit the floor like a rock, dropping the knife. No doubt that the X26 saved this guys life because the only other option would eventually have been lethal force. The X26 has had some problems with the blast doors coming off but Taser is working out the bugs on that now.

Great Tool for the job, however, don’t rely on it all the time. You still will have to use to old fashion hands on, and heart to bring someone under control when the Taser is not as effective as it needed to be. I have deployed the Taser twice. The first time, probes his, suspect collapsed and was cuffed, no injuries to anyone other than the probe punctures. Second time, suspect tripping on 23 hit of acid, deployment was too close; probes were only about 2 inches apart. Followed up with about 15 drive stuns, before back up arrived. Put the Taser up and used a lateral vascular neck restraint, (rear necked Chock) to bring him to the ground while 4 officers handcuffed him. EMS arrived gave him 15 mgs of versaid (sp) and then the Hospital Dr. gave him 32 mg of adavant (sp) to put him to sleep so they could treat the acid. Still over all a great tool, I believe every Police Officer in Every Department should be issued the X-26.

Outstanding tool! As an instructor I have had it deployed on myself during every class I have instructed and can give testimony that it does, in fact, incapacitate making restraint of subjects much safer for officers going hands on. A must have option for every patrol officer, detention officer, and tactical deployment. To potentially save a life and keep the officer free from injury this tool is well worth the cost.

we finally got these, i think the crooks are more scared of these then my beretta

Packs a mule kick, trust me you don't want to be on the receiving end of this product. Do not be fooled by its compact size, it surpasses the M in several areas.

I love this product. I have used it only twice in the field and it worked awesome. It stopped the threat and we were able to cuff the subject. I have been around it several other times where it has been used in various situations and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

This is the best tool we could have gotten! It is just beautiful to see 50,000 little angels massaging the cooperation out of people.

Great tool, the county I work for was one of first in ohio to issue the X26 as a take home tool.

My Taser has already helped me get out of 3 fights and I've only had it 3 months.

Very dependable and accurate in suspect submission

Best less lethal product I have ever used! I just hope the damn liberals don't get it taken away from us!

My Department has carried the M26 for a few years. Every Officer carried it on the gun belt. We are switching out to the X26. The X26 is a lot more comfortable to wear, takes up less room on the gun belt. I love the digital counter read out on the back. It tells you how many seconds, and how much battery remaining. Never have to place the X26 on a charger. Great device.

This truely is a great tool. Never had to use it in the field, just the pressence of it on my belt gets subjects to follow my directions. It's funny, most subjects are more afraid of the taser rather than the firearm

I have carried a taser for the last 6 years. I started out witht he m-26 and the department upgrade to the x-26. I find that this is an invaliable tool for us in law enforcement and reduces officer assault and injury considerably.

I've been in love with this product since it came out.My department does'nt allow us to carry them yet,but they are considering it.This truly is the best invention since the bullet.

Fantastic alternative to lethal force.

Nothin like the sound of one of these. Pop Pop Pop.....

This is the greatest thing in Law Enforcement since adding disco lights on top of the cars. If we (LE everywhere) can get together on ONE use of force policy that places it effectively in the continuum we will see them in all Departments.

Great all around FUN!! If u get bored on shift just pull out the taser an tase stuff!!

This is what we use at MCJ and even though i havent shot anyone yet with it i have been shot with it and i would have to say it works it hurts like hell and you really cant do anything when you are being tazed

Awesome effectiveness! Don't taze me bro!

Top equipment to have on duty. Highly recommended.

Great tool for Law Enforcement. The only issue our agency has on a regular basis is the safety on/off switch breaking and having to send in for repair.

Great tool for use on duty, and off, leasy to carry, and works great when applied correctly

The best thing that has ever come into LEO'S life (other than the pistol). I would love for our dept to let us carry these to and from work, but i doubt that it will happen. I do have a new respect for these things after i was qualifed damn they hurt lol.

I located a bad guy with a warrant in the middle of Wal Mart, he did not want to go with me and he did not speak English. Once I hit him with my X-26 he changed his mind and believe it or not he learned how to speak English in a blink of a probe.

This is one of the greatest additions to my force options ever invented. I don't have to fight with suspects as often. Just the laser beam on them makes them think twice and when the word "Taser" is added to the equation...resistance is futile. Love it!!

This device just doesn't affect sensory nerves (e.g. pain compliance). The TASER affects both sensory and motor nerves, so no matter what a suspect is on, a TASER is the most likely device to gain compliance.

Absolutely the best tool on my duty belt. Much like the sound of a shotgun being racked, the simply motion of drawing this item from its holster has quelled many a volatile situation.

Considering thats just what I was shot with, it works, REALLY well.

It has never failed me when it came time to use it.

The Taser is an excellent tool. I have ued it plenty of times, most of which were successful. Make sure if you are in a potentially deadly force situation you better have a cover officer with a firearm because the taser isnt 100%. I found that out a couple of times already.

This tool is no joke. It definitely made me scream when I got juiced by it. I've yet to use it on a suspect, but if I do, I'm sure it will work it's magic on them as it did on me.

One of the best less than lethal wepaons you can obtain. And hurts like a Mother***!

I work in a small north Texas city and word got around fast after we got these to all the officers. I worked at an agency that did not have Tasers and have been in enough sticky situations to know I'd rather have a Taser with me while I'm on duty. I've hit 4 people in the last two months and it's worked like a charm every time. I took 5 seconds with the prongs during training and this thing hurts BAD, fun gettin to use it though!

Always get compliance when this is displayed or used.

A great tool and like the frist guy said it can have a stall when deployed but we sent ours in and they fixed the problem. The first time I used it the threat told me that hehad been shot with a bean bag round, sprayed with OC and hit with a baton but this is the first time he ever got knocked on his a** and did not want to be hit with it again.

Great non-lethal weapon I have never actually deployed it but upon its presntation suspects have become compliant. Its great because unlike OC and the ASP it doesn't rely on pain compliance, don't get me wrong it hurts like hell, but it uses involuntary muscle contraction which means no matter how much crack or PCP your on your still more than likely going to go down. Great tool on my belt!

My department just started taser training and it will replace the OC spray, thank God! But I have to agree with everyone else that getting tased hurt like hell. I'm sure this tool will help prevent injuries to both officers and suspects, though the suspects injuries don't concern me nearly as much. When the local thugs learn that we will all have them soon, I don't think we'll have as many fights or chases anymore. Not thrilled about the supplied Bladetech holster. Think I'll pick up the Blackhawk Serpa version.

Awesome stop and put someone down without using bullets.A real attention getter!

love it!

Definitely worthy of a spot on my duty belt. Law Enforcement needed this a long time ago

I have used the Taser X-26 (Electronic Control Weapon) four times and I respect this a a primary tool of our profession.

Excellent tool, I love my M26 though I have a big hand it fit much better. I also like the M26 because it wont shock me while indexing the trigger guard

Awesome tool. Hurts like mother!

Great tool. Safe me from injury many times.

You pull and instant compliance

A GREAT TOOL TO HAVE IN TH FIELD. I BELIEVE THIS TOOL WILL ONLY GET BETTER OVER TIME. CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT NEW MODELS ARE DEVELOPED. IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN CERTIFIED WITH THIS TOOL I BELIEVE IT IS A MUST EVEN IF YOU DONT CARRY IT. JUST THE KNOWLEDGE IS GREAT TO HAVE ON HOW THIS TOOL WORKS.

oh yea

If your dept does not have this.... they need to. By far one of the best ways to end a problem.

This is an excellent tool for Law Enforcement Officer because it is useful and less lethal than having to use your firearm with a suspect.

No matter what anyone says, every officer should be carrying this system. It is light easy to handle, and very effective.

An attention getter.

This is probably the best tool our department has furnished us. We have not had any on the job injuries due to fighting with suspects. This will take the fight out of almost anybody. Including me!!!

I feel this product is a fantastic tool, but our department has had our share of problems. We have had repeated issues with the battery pack not being seated right with our models, causing the device to repeatedly cycle through the warranty information. Again, this product is a great tool that I would recommend, but it does have some issues, (like everything), from time to time.

Best tool any Law enforcement agency can have.

An amazing product to keep you safe both out on the streets and in the confides of a jail. It does a great job every time that you pull the trigger. I would much rather use this than oc, even though the reports are longer. Laser is excellent; also LED screen is very helpful to keep you up to date on what the status of you taser is.

Great Product...Every Officer should have one!

It's the best. Enough said.

I've used my taser twice already and it's VERY effective. I carry it as opposed to pepper spray!

I have used this several times. During one incident the subject I tazed kicked the tazer and knocked the spare cartridge off of it. Unfortunately for him the kick must have damaged the tazer and when I activated it a second time it would not shut off. Needless to say after going for a 30 or 40 second ride he was quite cooperative. So just beware of any hard impacts on the tazer or you could find yourself in the same situation (not that it hurt me at all). To shut it off I had to pull the battery. The tazer was sent back to Tazer International for repair. I was never told what was damaged in it. Overall this is a very effective too to have. After the word gets out that you are willing to use it suspects tend to be more cooperative.

effective tool when both probes make contact with suspect.

I find the Taser to be an exceptional tool in the field. It has deescalated situations where a subject has wanted to fight once he is presented with the Taser option. It has prevented hands on situations and reduced my chances of getting injured while apprehending suspects.

An outstanding tool ! I have used it in situations where I would have otherwise had to go hands on with an extremely mentally unstable individual that was alot bigger than I was! He was taken into custody w/out either one of us being injured.

Ouch! this taser is so awesome!

I have deployed the Taser 8 times in the last few years before retiring, and it's usage has prevented serious injuries (or worse) to myself, other officers, innocents, and Suspects numerous times, a proven life-saver. Compact, light, easy to carry. Ever since my Dept authorized them, I would not go out on patrol without one.

A great less lethal alternative.

This is the only less than lethal option I will ever need. Five seconds made me a believer.

This is the only less than lethal product that I have not seen fail to sudue a violent person. This thing is great.

I fought a guy one night out in the woods for about 10 minutes. I wrestled him to the ground, used my ASP baton and due to the influence of narcotics all of these had no affect on him. My backup arrived and hit him with the X-26 Taser, the guy gave up and put his hands behind his back.

This thing is great, half the times you don't even have to pull the trigger. Just turn it on and they either give up, or run like hell. Most painfull thing I have ever felt.

Very electrifying, does the job well, compact but packs a punch when necessary.

Great product, but know its limitations. Its not a quick draw weapon. Consider other uses of force when in close proximtiy.

said by one crook "If you was to get your ass whoop by the po-lice, take that ass whoopin', don't take that taser..."

I've got the video on my profile if anyone wants to see it!

This is a very very affective tool and will bring a violent situation to a halt real quick. Glad we have these in our detention facility. GO TASER!

Big fan of the taser after seeing it used and having it used on me for training. I tried to fight it but couldn't and ended up letting the taser take me for a ride. lol. Powerful tool and excellent piece of machinery. Wish every officer in every agency could carry one. Plus when dealing with drunks or government conspiracy types you can tell them the laser is a sniper or just come up with something else thats creative. Works in your favor most of the time avoiding any conflict.

This is an awesome tool that all departments need to have and every officer should have at hand. I was hit with the X26 and tried to fight through it and that just was not happening. I have also used the X26 on perps and they did not enjoy it either! It is very easy to use and gets the job done alot easier. It keeps us from have alot of hand to hand confrontations when you can just drop them with the taser! What a great tool way to go Taser International

Light weight, easy carry on the belt instead of the leg holster like the M26, high cycle rate with a better battery pack (no recarging) than M26 Tasers which is easy to check without having to cycle.

Will "light you up"!

This an awesome tool.. I have used it in several situations where OC would not have worked.

Best tool on my belt

This really is an awesome tool. Such pain with no residual damage! Good stuff.

issued to me, outstanding performance. Would buy one if not issued!

This is one of the best tools that have been added to the tool box. This device demands respect when no matter what you say the suspect or perp is still wanting to fight.
There have been times when just the mere presence of the Taser X26 on scene has De-escalated situations while still being in the holster.

Greatest tool non-lethal tool that could have ever been invented for law enforcement. Clothing disconnect is an issue when subject is wearing heavy clothing, which requires a drive stun. Prevents unnecessary injuries to officers.

Is the best tool introduced to law enforcement. It much better than using any of the spray's because it has no effect on the officer(s). Most offenders will follow commands even without deploying probes. They are aware of the weapon and are afraid of what will happen. For those that aren't afraid, then they find out. Would rather use taser before any spray and the X26 is more compact and easier to carry than the M26

very good non-leathel weapon. can take suspect down with having to use deadly force and it also help saves lives of victims and suspects alike....

very effective less lethal use of force option. I don't leave home without it!

great tool if your department allows them

The best freind to a lone patrol officer with a combative subject. the lazor dot does most of the talking for you.

great taser has a light and red dot never had a problem with this taser

I think TASER has revolutionized non-lethal force with this device. I started carrying one (not an X-26) back in 1990 when I made Sergeant. It was a huge, clunky thing that looked like a Star Trek Type II Phaser. It used .22 short cartiridges to fire the probes and got its' zap from a 9-volt battery. It worked "sometimes". Fast forward in time to the X-26...WOW! Smaller, lighter, lithium-ion battery pack, laser, LED's, better cartridges...what can you say? I've been a Taser certified instructor for six years, so I've taken the 5 second ride several times. I'm a big lad but I can't fight my way through it. I've used it several times in the field and no one else has fought through it either. I think TASERs should be as standard on a duty belt as handguns, cuffs, and radios. If I had to pick a baton, OC, or a TASER, and I could only carry one, it would be the TASER.

What more can be said that can't be seen on T.V. Instant compliance.

Sized right, like the light and laser, and it's never failed to drop someone who needed it.

Great control device.

Excellent tool and effective in our department.
Reduces wear and tear on our Officers....lol
Sturdy and well constructed.
End.

Best thing since OC, never had an issue with this product in training or in the field.

Excellent tool

Great tool. really hurts and will make you lock your nasty body every time.

This is a great tool to have. The first month of use on this tool and I think it made its money back. All of my department was issued and they all have used it. Lowered the rate of on the job injuries since we had them and have added another tool for us to have to complete the tasks placed before us.
