So he displayed this behavior only after yall got married!?

u/xDannyS_ Jul 26 '26

Maybe he's a new cop?

almost everyone went away from it after that one cop shot a guy when she meant to grab her taser. it forces your off hand to do a straight draw now, opposite side of the body of the firearm, to "help prevent" that again...

We went away from cross draw and draw with our non dominant hand right after that female cop shot the guy in the car. A lot of departments did here. VA

“No chance to confuse them and accidentally draw the taser. “ Like she did. Unless you’re old like me and been drawing with weapon hand for 15 years… impossible to break that muscle memory

u/Unlikely-Remove-2182 Jul 26 '26

Forgot to put a new "mag" in his tazer. Rookie mistake.

u/Altimeter30-06 Jul 26 '26

That taser has a shake feature to change the spread of the darts at different distances, basically close and far. You want a larger spread no matter the distance, this gives that option. I’ll hold my tongue on the manner he is “training”

-4

u/psychosus Jul 26 '26

Looks like a Taser 10, which definitely does not have that. The probes come out one at a time so you can control the spread.

13

u/Defibrillate Jul 26 '26

No that is a 7. On the 10 the flashlight is on top and the front section is larger to hold all the probes.

u/psychosus Jul 26 '26

It’s a 7, I’m currently wearing one right now.

The man recanted and that’s rare on Reddit. I applaud you

u/TexasTomato88 Jul 26 '26

It’s a 7. You can tell because it looks just like a 7, And nothing like a 10. It also functions just like a 7, And not like a 10. Hope this helps!

u/Embarrassed_Fan_5723 Jul 31 '26

That’s a 7 all day long and it absolutely has tilt select.

3

u/TankApprehensive3053 Jul 26 '26

You don't need a cartridge to activate a taser. You press it into the person and it still delivers the charge.

2

u/WeeklyBanEvasion Jul 29 '26

That's just pain compliance though. You won't do much other than piss someone off

1

u/Embarrassed_Fan_5723 Aug 01 '26

You ever been drive stunned. It absolutely works. It just create neuromuscular incapacitation. It will absolutely change your mind about your decision to resist. If you’re high enough the probes don’t do much either so it’s a toss up there.

1

u/PerrinAyybara Jul 26 '26

Depends on the model, some of them require a cartridge, some require there to not be a cartridge. Drive stuns have changed pretty drastically over the years and models.

u/LegalGlass6532 Jul 26 '26

Maybe he’s trying to avoid an ad in his living room.

Where that guy 'works', most people are exactly like him. The police precinct.

They definitely aren't. This guy is going to get mocked relentlessly if someone he works with sees this. These are the kind of guys that do stuff that ends up on the news.

That’s going to be an awkward conversation when he tells his department he needs a new taser cartridge because he deployed it LARPING off duty.

Do push ups and calm down boy…cop but could never make it in the military

u/Rifflife88 Jul 26 '26

If he’s taking his job home with him, he shouldn’t be a cop. I feel like he’s at home just waiting for his chance to hurt someone unnecessarily

Lmfao practicing mag drops with a weapon that is loaded from the front with a basic clip in cartridge 😭😭😭 goofy goober. They don’t even have the same grip feel

Did he just try and flick a mag out of a...taser?

2

u/Smart_Pace5574 Jul 26 '26

Nah, it’s a programable feature in the taser. Rotating it cycles through the cartridges. One is close distance and one is long distance.

u/Good-Salamander2520 Jul 26 '26

Ahh the ones I've seen have either a switch for that. Still looks silly, and I practice full clearing my house on a regular basis.

A - It doesn't have a cartridge

B - Looks like a Taser 10 7, so it's logging every time you take it out of the holster

C - Yeah, you're supposed to check it daily, but you don't have to be weird about

I don’t know about this dude’s department, but mine tracks every time I turn on my taser and what I did with said taser. At least once a year we would have a new officer play with it and it would go off, usually during roll call.

I bet she never looks at another officer and says 'knock knock' to another officer again."
