This $6 Stock Could Make 707% in the Next Three Months

From March 16, 2003, to April 18, 2004, a small defense company went from $0.65 to $64.15. That's 9,769% in a little over a year.

The company was Taser International Inc. (TASR:NASDAQ). At the time it was an obscure company that had invented an electrical stun gun - a nonlethal weapon that sent suspects to the ground in a spastic flurry of pain, removing any further threat. Taser claimed that this method of criminal disarmament left no lasting effect on the victim.

Taser had no real competition, and in the new post 9/11 realities, among surging homeland security budgets, their products became very popular. Police departments around the world placed orders. Earnings per share jumped from a third of a penny to 14 cents in a little over a year - a fantastic growth rate. It's no wonder Taser's stock took off like a bat out of hell, shooting up from $5.50 to $64!

Somewhere amid this great party of sales and earnings some questions arose. It seems that Taser wasn't so safe after all. There were deaths and subsequent lawsuits. In recent months, media reports claimed that as many as 71 deaths have resulted from use of the handheld device, which uses electrified probes to temporarily disable a threatening person by overwhelming the nervous system for a few seconds.

In a recent instance, a Long Island family has filed lawsuits seeking more than one billion dollars from the maker of the Taser stun gun and the police who used it. A mentally ill Southampton man died while being arrested by Southampton Police who used the stun gun to subdue him.

Wall Street hates lawsuits
One only has to look at Merck - whose Vioxx lawsuits have killed the stock - or Phillip Morris, or any of the companies that had anything to do with asbestos, to see how lawsuits can destroy a company and cause huge loses to its shareholders.

No wonder Taser's share price was cut in half. The growth was there, the market was and still is huge, but there had to be another, safer method of non-lethal capture.

This little-known company has a safer stun gun
Researchers for a small company are on their way to developing a new stun pistol using 'fused muscle tetany' for law enforcement and corrections to subdue and capture violent criminals and inmates.

The stun pistol effectively subdues violent criminals while operating at less than one fourth the power of some of Taser's products. The new technology is based upon the research of biologist James McNulty, Jr., who first accurately described how stun gun shocks act upon the human physiology. He received US Patent 5,841,622 for his work.

I won't go into the biology of how a stun gun works and what is the safe level of shocks. Suffice it to say, Dr. McNulty is the leading expert in the field and is propelling the science forward. With its new, safer technology, this company could become a major competitor to Taser as soon as March 2005.

Remember, two years ago Taser was a $0.65 stock - before it climbed 9,769%. The market is far from saturated and there is plenty of room to grow. Only 20% to 25% of local law enforcement agencies in the United States now use stun guns.

With virtually no penetration yet, international markets have significant potential for stun guns. Just recently, stun guns were approved for use by police forces throughout England and Wales. According to research from Homeland Security Research Corp., this industry is expected to grow to more than $170 billion by 2006.

You must act before the end of the month
A major Homeland Security Stocks online investor conference will be held October 20, 2004. All the big names will be there, even our $3.15 stock. Hype surrounding the conference could
send the company with the technology to make a safe stun gun flying much higher. Any terrorist attack on or before the November 2 election will do likewise.

You must own this stock before that happens.

Cordially,
