Stun guns and Tasers are often grouped together online, but they are not the same product. Knowing the difference helps shoppers compare options and avoid ordering something restricted in their location.
How they work
A contact stun gun is designed to deliver an electrical deterrent when its electrodes make contact. A Taser-style conducted energy weapon launches probes and is commonly regulated differently. Product names and legal classifications vary by jurisdiction.
Which can you buy online?
Online availability does not override local law. Check your state and city rules, shipping eligibility, and prohibited locations before purchasing. Cheetah focuses on consumer personal safety products, not restricted law-enforcement equipment.
