Telescoping batons: What kind of injuries can you inflict with them?

[jtvang125]

I've only seen them being used in movies and whoever gets hit with one seems to be in quite a lot of pain. I'm sure it does hurt being they're made of metal but what type of injury can they really inflict in the right hands?

It also looks cool when they pull it out, flick their wrist and it extends almost 3 feet.

I'm sure you could probably kill someone if you hit them hard enough in the head.

 

[jpeyton]

Death.

 

[GalvanizedYankee]

A solid hit anywhere near the ear=death.

I want one 😛 They work great on feral dogs..or so i hear.

...Galvanized

So they're illegal?

I soooo do not carry one under the seat of my 4runner, so don't look there 😉.

BTW, I don't know this for fact, but they hurt like hell, trust me, I don't know.

Death, concussion, broken bones, damage to internal organs, bruises, swelling... uh.... there's quite a large 'Continuum of Injury'

Get an automatic extending baton. They're about $30 on on the internet and it's an excellent self-defense device.

 

[scrawnypaleguy]

Yeah they're illegal. They're deadly in the right hands.

it depends on your state

This is my personal baton. I grinded off the handle-protectors on the side because it makes the baton bulky and look stupid.

So whats the best way to defend yourself against one of these batons?

They'd probably make a pretty good anal probe. Just pull one out on the wrong guy, and you'll get it shoved up your a$$.
