They are designed to deliver an electric current to disrupt voluntary control of muscles causing "neuromuscular incapacitation."

The Axon Taser Training course covers the Taser X26P and Taser 7 models and is designed to teach participants proper handling, use, and maintenance of the device to ensure maximum effectiveness and safety. The 8-hour training includes legal and ethical considerations, as well as hands-on practice exercises to develop decision-making and de-escalation skills. Upon completion, participants will receive a certification of completion (valid for one calendar year from the date of the class).

"In my 15 years of service, these are the first two times I've seen these types of devices seized off the street." said Sgt. Travis Willie of the Prince Albert Police Service.

The household materials used to make the devices are inexpensive and instructions for building them can be found online.

Participants receive a certification of completion, indicating that they have been trained to safely and effectively utilize the Taser device in the line of duty.

In Canada, stun guns or Tasers, which deliver a jolt of electricity, are a prohibited weapon. Only law enforcement officers are permitted to carry them.

The majority of the course focuses on hands-on training with the Taser device. Participants will learn how to properly aim and fire the device, how to use the various modes of operation, and how to effectively deploy the device in different scenarios. The training includes scenario-based exercises to help participants develop their decision-making and de-escalation skills.

The Axon Taser Training course designed for active duty law enforcement, military, and selected security professionals provides hands-on training and practical knowledge of the Taser X26P and Taser 7.
