It's a jungle out there, as any gentleman with a subway (or L.A. freeway) commute can tell you. From Napoleon's sabre to Doc Holliday's six-shooter, gentleman have always chosen wisely when protecting themselves in this wild wild world. For centuries however, g-men looking for a less-lethal form of protection were forced to clasp a measly can of sprayable pepper. Times have changed. With the Taser M26, gentlemen can zap foes into paralyzed heaps from 15ft away, and keep them there long enough to grab a bat or MagLite (both trusty forms of g-man protection) to further nullify the threat(s). While the taser has been around for a few years, only recently has the super high-voltage law enforcement edition been available to the public. Now, average Joe Gents can be armed and dangerous, without the hazards of a bloodstained cardigan. Acquire it here: $499, www.taser.com
