The accuracy and dispersion of the new XP at full 25 foot deployment is comparable to that of our standard cartridge at its full 21 foot range. The new XP will be featured at the Taser International Booth #2012 during the International Association of Chiefs of Police Conference in Los Angeles, California starting on November 13, 2004.
"The bi-metal design of the 25 foot XP enhances Taser devices ability to penetrate heavy clothing while increasing accuracy and flight stability at extended ranges," said Rick Smith, CEO of Taser International.
"The new XP cartridge utilizes an enhanced 2,200 PSI nitrogen propulsion system and bi-metal probe construction to increase impact momentum onto the target, thus maximizing clothing compression."
"The 25 foot XP Cartridge is a further enhancement on our patented technology that has already demonstrated overwhelming success and acceptance in the field at over 6,000 law enforcement agencies worldwide," concluded Mr. Smith.
The new XP cartridge is compatible with all currently fielded Taser M26 and Taser X26 systems and will ship in December 2004.
