how far can a taser shoot
The distance a Taser can shoot varies depending on the model. Here are some common models and their maximum shooting distances:
- Taser X26: 10-15 feet (3-4.5 meters) for the standard cartridge, and up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) for the extended-range cartridge.
- Taser X2: 10-15 feet (3-4.5 meters) for the standard cartridge, and up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) for the extended-range cartridge.
- Taser X26P: 10-15 feet (3-4.5 meters) for the standard cartridge, and up to 25 feet (7.6 meters) for the extended-range cartridge.
- Taser 7: 15-22 feet (4.5-6.7 meters) for the standard cartridge, and up to 30 feet (9 meters) for the extended-range cartridge.
- Taser Pulse: 15 feet (4.5 meters) for the standard cartridge.
Please note that these distances are approximate and can vary depending on the specific Taser model, the type of cartridge used, and environmental factors such as wind and humidity. Additionally, the effective range of a Taser can also depend on the target’s clothing, body size, and other factors.
It’s also worth noting that Tasers are designed for close-range use and are typically most effective at distances of 6-10 feet (1.8-3 meters).
