Austalia Stun Gun Laws
by Jeevan Lim-Nunez
(Australia)
Hi, as quoted below stun guns are illegal in Australia.
A hand-held or other electric device designed to administer an electric shock on contact, other than a piece of medical equipment or electric prod designed exclusively for use with animals.
Example - hand-held electric device a taser self-defence weapon
Other electric device examples:
(1) a taxi protection cushion system
(2) a super safety suitcase
Note:
An example is part of the Act, is not exhaustive and may extend, but does not limit, the meaning of the provision in which it appears (see Legislation Act, s 126 and s 132).
This was taken from Page 40 of the Prohibited Weapons Act 1996, which can be found at:
