ABSTRACT:
An electrical impulse-type immobilization weapon having both the capability for launching two tethered electrodes at a remote target, as well as for contacting, by means of two spaced apart contacts, a target located immediately adjacent the weapon. Furthermore, the present invention provides a novel manner for indicating whether or not launched projectiles have indeed impacted the target and have enabled the target to be subjected to an electrical impulse by establishing a current between the two projectile electrodes on the target surface. Furthermore, the present invention provides a sighting capability to increase the accuracy of target impact at a remote location. The sighting capability is provided herein by a pair of solid state laser devices mounted mechanically to the immobilization weapon in a manner which provides an accurate indication of the likely impact points for the remotely launched projectiles on a remote target. Still another highly advantageous feature of the present invention comprises a novel battery section structure which permits the battery to be installed into the immobilization weapon in only one direction, thus providing assurance that opposite polarity will not be inadvertently obtained during times of urgency or other stressful times when it is not convenient to carefully check the orientation of the battery as it is being installed.
