TASR,

A snippet from my previous post:

"We are extremely gratified to reach this important milestone in our company history since our very first ADVANCED TASER was delivered in December 1999," said Rick Smith, chief executive officer. "This translates into adding approximately 40 new law enforcement agencies every month. Law enforcement agencies are some of the most skeptical buyers in the world and will only take proven equipment.

"This is a great achievement and a powerful validation for our company over the past 23 months of sales of the M26. What's even more exciting is that we have barely scratched the surface when you look at the overall market potential of the 18,000 plus law enforcement agencies in the United States. Fortunately, we are either in field test or are deploying the M26 with most of the opinion leaders in law enforcement

Manny, re: TASR.

The company has received numerous calls from consumers wanting to buy their Advanced Tasers. I am in the market for one too, never heard of them before. You can buy it from any one of the 30 distributors.

There are 12,000,000 cops, only 15,000 are equipped with the Advanced Tasers.

There are several millions private security guards.

There are 50,000,000 households with handguns, some will want to own the M26 too.

On the competitive landscape, TASR practically owns the entire market share. It has just one competitor, a small private company called Tasertron. Tasertron's tasers don't even look like guns. Check them out.

BTW, United conducted another field test of TASR's tasers on an Airbus and an 777 last Saturday. They fired onto the cockpit dashboard, instrumentation panel, etc. The tasers passed with flying colors. There was absolutely no interference with the navigation or communication systems.

I understand United will make the test results available to other airlines so others won't have to repeat the same test and can proceed to order from TASR once FAA gives the final nod (expected in the next 4 weeks or so).

Regards,

Tom
