This video reviews the Taser X12 XREP, a unique firearm concept released in 2008. It features a Mossberg 500 shotgun modified to fire a self-contained Taser cartridge, the XREP. The XREP cartridge was designed for intermediate ranges (30-100 feet) where standard Tasers are ineffective. It deploys four barbs and is designed to complete an electrical circuit for a 20-second pulse. The shotgun itself had modifications, including a proprietary bolt face and rifled barrel, to ensure only XREP cartridges could be fired, preventing accidental use of lethal ammunition. Despite the innovative concept, the project was a commercial failure due to the high cost of the XREP cartridges.
