Taser questions

[Thomas]

I know im behind 8 months but..
Are these really legal now?
Are they considered pistols and need a ccw?
Can they be carried outside the home?
Debating buying one. No point in having for home only when i have a shotgun why would i use a taser. I dont have a ccw and this is a nice alternative if legal to carry. Thank you

Yes it's legal, no you don't need a permit for the stun gun but not sure about a Taser. I believe you could still get in a jam if you pull it on someone with out just cause. I just got a hand held stun/shocker for my wife, it does NOT shoot darts with wires attached but instead you need to make contact with your assailant. She's a nurse and doesn't want to carry at work for multiple reasons but this fits the bill.
