Used X-26 TASERS

[pbragg]

I am looking for a supplier or individule that is selling a used X-26. I am puurchasing this myself so I obviously can't pay top dollar. I just got my instructor cert for TASER and my agency allows us to carry X-26 but only provides M-26.

check the trading post section, there is one up there for 7 something.

Why not just carry what they give you? It's a taser, for all intents and purposes it does the same thing.

He is correct. Except for the digital display and size it is the same thing. Same power and same cartridges. I would just carry the M26 if I were you....

Size is one reason. No need to charge and recharge batteries is another. In addition, the X26 creates a different discharge pulse; Taser claims that the X26 technology is superior.

Wha we learned in the instructor course is the X-26 technology is superior as well as the shaped pulse compared to the "blunt" pulse of the M-26. Don't get me wrong I wouldn't turn down an M-26, tactics and end effect are the same. I was just hoping to be ablle to find an X-26 possibly from a dept that is upgrading to the X-3. I may even be able to talk our auxillary into buying some X-26's if the price is right.

I actually have been hit by both the M26 and the X26. The M26 hurt worse. Also, the M26 sounds nastier. I had the room on my belt I would carry the M26 instead of the x26.

My .02 cents but check the trading forum.

I too am a Taser instructor, and I know that they say the X26 technology is superior and what not. I've been hit with both and I can tell you without hesitation that both work, both suck and I couldn't tell the difference. I'd carry what they give you, size is a factor so that might make it worth it if the price on a used X26 is low.

I am also a taser instructor...I can tell you from experience that I wouldn't carry another m26 unless i was using it as a boomerang. It's HUGE, half *** works and after a while the taser won't hold a charge, new batteries or not. The x26 is not only superior, but twice as reliable.

Taser Instructor here too!

M26 after a while I was experiencing battery problems, no such problems on the X26...when it gets low you can just change the DPM.

The size and weight also makes the X26 a smart move, I felt like I had 2 glocks on each hip with the M26!

Several X-26Cs are on gunbroker most of the time, occasionally you can find a LE X-26 there, might watch for it there a bit.
