Abstract:
1. A multi-function electroshock gun comprising: a gun body including a barrel and a grip extending from said barrel; a firing mechanism mounted in said gun body and operable to propel a projectile that is fired through said barrel; an electroshock unit including a battery mounted in said gun body, a set of exposed electrodes fixedly mounted to said gun body, and a discharge module coupled electrically to said battery and said exposed electrodes and capable of being activated to generate an electrical output signal at said exposed electrodes for administering electric shock by contact; a trigger mechanism mounted on said gun body and operable to activate said discharge module; a power source mounted to said gun body and providing propelling energy to said firing mechanism for firing the projectile, wherein said trigger mechanism is further associated operatively with said power source and is operable to control supply of the propelling energy to said firing mechanism; and a mode selector coupled to said discharge module and said power source, said mode selector being operable in a selected one of a projectile firing mode, where said discharge module is disabled and said power source is enabled, an electroshock mode, where said discharge module is enabled and said power source is disabled, a dual-output mode, where both of said discharge module and said power source are enabled, and a safety mode, where both of said discharge module and said power source are disabled.
