drive stun
 n.โ€” ยซThe gun looks like a water pistol so it canโ€™t be mistaken for a firearm, Higgins said. A battery powering a microphone and camera linked to a built-in computer chip snap into the handle so that any use of the gun can be captured in multimedia. Two fine copper strands that can stretch 21 feet are coiled in a cartridge that snaps onto the tip of the gunโ€™s barrel. The wires connect to two electrodes that can be used directly on the skin of the person being shocked. Thatโ€™s called a “drive stun,” Higgins said.ยป โ€”โ€œTasers join arsenal” by Christopher Williams Sun Journal (Lewiston, Maine) June 14, 2007. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
