👉 A shock weapon is a type of non-lethal weapon designed to inflict pain and temporary incapacitation without causing permanent harm. These devices typically deliver a high-voltage electrical current through the body, creating a sudden jolt that can result in severe pain, muscle spasms, and temporary loss of motor function. Unlike traditional weapons, shock weapons are intended to subdue or deter attackers without lethal consequences, often used in law enforcement and security contexts to control individuals without resorting to lethal force.
