Can you buy non-lethal protection such as a tazer?

In most states there is no waiting period but there may be a few restrictions (i.e. age), here is a list of states/cities and countries laws about them...\n\np.s.- Even though the website does call it "non-lethal", you should consider it "less-lethal", because tasers can be deadly even when used properly.

its BB guns and they are not illegal they can be bought and sold without a f/o/i/d card but they are only for target practice or out at the creek or river or in the country not in city limits

Bound's hubby here:\n\nUnder current federal law, any sale made by a holder of a FFL (Federal Firearms License) must conduct a National Instant Check. Only private party sales are currently exempt from this check. However, whoever bought the firearm first is the registered owner start a paper trail when they sell a firearms because they never know what future owner will use it unlawfully.\n\nBe forewarned... most stated do not allow property owners the right to use lethal force to protect property (your stated reason for buying a rifle). In most states, if you use lethal force to protect property you will find yourself facing charges for murder.\n\nHave a nice day. Good luck.

The concept here is simple - you can not use deadly force to protect your property.  You may, in some instances which may vary across the 50 states, use deadly force to protect your person or others who are in grave danger of serious bodily harm or death.  \n\nBut this is not legal advice - just my own opinion.

Model 22, would be my choice of weapons, however most police departments issue a 9mm Glock. (Can't remember the model number)  Price is around $500.00, US.

A gun that doesn't look like a gun is classified by the BATFE as an AOW, or Any Other Weapon. In order to purchase an AOW, you must fill out some ATF paperwork, get the chief law enforcement officer to sign off on the paperwork, submit fingerprints and 2 photographs, submit to a criminal background check, wait for the ATF to approve the purchase, and pay for a special tax stamp that must be affixed to the paperwork. Furthermore, you really should have the paperwork with the AOW at all times to prove its legality.\n\nAre you really sure you want to go through all that?

Usually, you go to a shop and buy them. You could try nicking them, but that's risky if the coppers nab you.

easy, move to a state where it is legal to own one, and buy one that is legally registered as a full auto weapon, that would be a class 3 weapon and its going to cost you

Depending on the state in which you reside, the answer may be a qualified "yes." In order to purchase a Class III (select fire) firearm, you need a couple of things:\n\n1. It has to be legal in your state.\n\n2. You need permission from the chief law enforcement officer in your county - ordinarily the sheriff.\n\n3. You need to decide EXACTLY what firearm you want to purchase - not just the model, but the exact serial number. You'll need that for the next step.\n\n3a. The firearm has to have been manufactured, assembled (and imported, where applicable)  prior to May 19, 1986.\n\n4. You need to fill out an ATF form (number escapes me) begging permission from them to own such a firearm. You need to include the serial number, hence step #3.\n\n5. You need to have a secure location to place the firearm in your house. The ATF can show up any time - day or night - for a spot check to see that the gun is on the premises listed in step 4 and that you're the only one that has access to it.\n\n6. You need to pay a $200 tax for having such a firearm. I don't recall if it's $200 once or every year, but it's a pittance. Annoying, but a pittance.\n\nReally, your best bet is to find a dealer that specializes in Class III firearms. A quick call to a local gun shop will help you find one.

For the same reason you can but condoms in the supermarket, vodka at the ABC store, bullets at the WalMart (oops, scratch that one), K-Y Gel at the Food Lion, "Marilyn Manson" CD's at Target, and python-food (mouses) at the PetSmart.\n\nYou are not supposed to use these products at the "point of purchase", LOL! Though life might be funner if you were, don'tcha think!

Ahem... No.\n\nIt is called assult with a deadly weapon - and drunk or not, it is illegal and not OK.

contact the BATF, but this differs from state to state...if you live in communis...sorry california and some new england states then there is a long list of illegal firearms and banned guns, but if you life in a relatively free state then the only weapons that are banned is anything fully auto and anything silenced, UNLESS you purchase permit and have it registered with the BATF...why do you ask?

I've seen them sold online before.\n\nThey are dangerous but their not really weapons,so I don't see why you can't.

They make a pellet rifle that takes two of the small CO2 tanks that is very quite and has power of 22 cal rifle.  But if you are rich then a silenced rifle would be sure thing.   They are not illegal like un educated people think.   but they are expensive.  Must buy through a class 3 gun dealer and must wait for FBI background check plus pay $200 tax on the gun.   Best bet is the crossman rifle that takes the CO2 tanks but you must remember that they are power full and deadly. be sure there is nothing behind your target that you wouldn't want to hit with possible misses.

One possibility would be frangible ammo, which won't penetrate through walls and is non-toxic (no lead).  I don't know if you can get rubber bullets anywhere, but that may be a bad idea (it would just make the intruder madder).\n\nhttp://www.precisionammo.com/\nhttp://accutecusa.com/\nhttp://www.precisioncartridge.com/frangible.html\nhttp://www.iccammo.com/products.html
