TASER Self-Defense Missouri State Requirements

Carry in Missouri

Whether you're at home, commuting to work, or exploring Missouri’s many scenic parks and thriving city centers — stay protected without becoming another statistic of rising crime. TASER Self-Defense products, including the Pulse Series, Bolt Series, and StrikeLight Series, offer reliable, non-lethal personal protection for everyday situations.

TASER products are ideal for:

    • Young adults commuting or traveling through public areas — the StrikeLight Series combines a high-powered flashlight with built-in stun functionality for nighttime safety.
    • Seniors looking for a discreet and easy-to-use self-defense tool — the Bolt Series is compact, intuitive, and confidence-building.
    • Gun owners seeking a less-lethal alternative — the Pulse Series offers powerful, compact protection with fewer legal risks
