Taser Certification for Civilians

In a world where violence happens, we must be thankful that deadly force is rarely the necessary answer. Having a tool that is designed to be non-lethal could be extremely beneficial in many circumstances where a firearm isn’t the best tool for the desired resolution.

Taser energy weapons are designed to be an effective non-lethal tool to immobilize an attacker. The popular Pulse or Pulse+ civilian versions of the widely used law enforcement devices from Axon, provide the same knock-down punch, but are designed specifically for civilian self-defense. Taser also offers the security officer specific model, the Taser X1, and other models in the professional series.

Taser Benefits

• Up to 30 seconds of muscular incapacitation
• Designed to be non-lethal
• Most states do not require a permit to own or carry
• Effective up to 15 feet away from the attacker

As with any tool that is designed to be used in self-defense, it is important to receive training. Bearco instructor Barret Kendrick is a Master Instructor for Taser's Civilian program. We offer courses both for security personnel and civilians wanting to own and carry one for self-defense.
