Keep the TASER CED out of the Gun-Hand
- PRIMARY GUARD -
Restricting Gun-Hand TASER CED use may seem counterintuitive. History holds the truth: Gun-Hand TASER CED use has been the consistent underlying factor in growing incidents across the country. The danger is not restricting the Gun-Hand - but in failing to do so. Primary Guard addresses the root cause of Weapon Confusion, while providing a physical safeguard to Firearm Retention failure. Enforce the separation of roles between less-lethal and lethal force.
"Don't let avoidable become irreversible." - Primary Guard
-
Safer Officers / Safer Encounters / Safer Communities.
Primary Guard is a physical safeguard against "Switching Hands." When we keep the TASER CED out of the Gun-Hand, this ensures that the Gun-Hand remains free to defend the firearm in a struggle (e.g., An Officer being disarmed affects Officer and Public Safety.)

Practice doesn't make perfect, it makes permanent.
Primary Guard remains secured to the TASER CED, both during training and while on-duty, aims to develop Support-Side carry and Support-Hand control into an automatic and stress-ready response. Being that the Support-Hand cannot unholster the Firearm, this reduces the likelihood of the Firearm being mistakenly selected, when attempting to reach (unholster) the TASER CED under stress. (e.g., When a subject is fleeing or resisting.)

Gun-Hand control of the TASER CED increases the risk of:
-
Death
-
Great Bodily Injury (GBI)
-
Weapon Confusion
-
Dangerous Weapon Transitions
-
Firearm Retention Failure
Gun-Hand TASER CED control Includes:
-
Strong-Side Carry / Gun-Hand Draw.
-
Support-Side Carry / Gun-Hand Draw "Cross-Draw."
-
Support-Side Carry / Support-Hand Draw "Switching Hands."

*Integrate with your Agency TASER CED Training Regimen and Policy.
Switching Hands
Why is Primary Guard needed? "Switching Hands."
Because an Agency Policy alone cannot prevent the TASER CED from switching hands after unholstering. This is a practice, where the TASER CED is unholstered using the Support-Hand, and then is switched over to the Gun-Hand to be deployed. In some agencies this may be a trained practice, while in other agencies it may be occurring non-consciously by the Officer / Deputy. Enforce the separation of roles between less-lethal and lethal force.
*Safeguard against "Switching Hands" with Primary Guard.
"After drawing the TASER with my Support-Hand and with one held at TASER point, I unknowingly switched it to my Gun-Hand.
-----------------------------------------------
Immediately, I felt the Primary Guard and switched the TASER back to my Support-Hand." - Brandon K. / Police Officer (Ca.)
"Now that a device like this exists, the question that prosecutors will be compelled to ask in future incidents like that of Minnesota is, why did the agency not have Primary Guard?"
