Telescopic Baton in the action

Nowadays I do not have to very complicated explain what a telescopic baton is. Not only have many people regularly carried it for own defence, but it has became general part of equipment a lot of them who perform their challenge work in safety department. Intensive very challenge and repeated tests show one of the most quality baton is made by ESP firm. The results of destructive tests of this Czech product are frequently surprising. In the last time it is this very storable and practical instrument equipped by practical custom set which displaces bounds of practical possibilities and it creates multifunction instrument from the telescopic baton. We have had possibility of participation with Slovak company AFGs’ assistant by the custom tests this fresh news – “police tactical set”.

Baton “out of sack”?

The advantages, so-called “telescopes” are at the moment evident. In case of dangerous violence confrontation it is certainly advantage to have not small oblong object by you which you can change only by one quick move to decent iron thin pole. In consequence many are still bringing this practical thing on their belt or at least they are putting the baton in their pocket or in a bag, if they know that they are running through problematic places or they are going out with dog darkling. The telescopic batons have their own stable place behind many flat doors or in the car doors. It is not wonder. The telescopic baton gives the ability to person with more slim body construction to eliminate aggressive and awfully bodily adult person. This instrument adds tenth kilos and years of practising in the combat sports to relatively untrained human. It could be easy to change the well-known and classical adage (notice: in origin about the revolver Colt): “The Got created power less and powerful people also the telescopic baton removed this lack”. Experiences from real street give proof that a slim girl with the telescopic baton in her hands can in short time become very dangerous opponent. So the violators look out!

Serve and protect

The telescopic batons have not stayed only the spread and in great measure favour instrument used by bouncers and members of safety services (they do not have to in opposition to members of states’ institution make out a selection procedure for purchase their equipment). The safety branches naturally know their assured advantage (especially interlocking and effectiveness). In the world there the so-called “telescope” is still more and more usual instrument for John Law. Same it is in Slovakia where these compulsory tools by very high and favour quality are sold. Of course among the first sold batons are usually the telescopic batons which are placed to the most picked safety branches in different states. By our Czech neighbour it has been by The Organization of Quick Employment (URN), The Secret Service, The Close Support and regional Interference Unit. Today there it is not only more and more spread a list of department where are these practical instruments used but according to all foretastes it actually begins to realise areal exchange and in digit unit – in this period in Prague there the telescopic baton ESP is a part of equipment for policemen “from street” – members of emergency motorized unit, line 158. In Slovakia where the similar set is becoming “helper of law”, there special branch of police and specialized units is outfitting by it. Also here they know that a steel baton not only more safes intervened policemen in time of still more resolute and forceable offender but paradoxically it safes human health against whom it is intervened (according to discovery it has came to many accidents and even to death by usage of plastic baton because of bats made from light material has not sufficed for quick paralysation – invented policeman so have to often not only afforce number and power of batting, but thanks immediate inefficiency they direct bats on a head and other sensible part...And than it has been great problem.). It is simple – if I break an offenders’ limb only by one bat, I do not have to frequently knock him. Simply the trend is clear steel is the first and criminal elements fear...

Official tactical set

The telescopic baton is not used only as an instrument for bats, for drawing-off and fixing techniques. Thanks its already unbelievable durability it can be used also in the situations when it is lively necessary to eliminate some barriers, whether it goes about windows or doors, get to car, etc.

The new-developed practical set of very useful accessories serves for another purpose.

The telescopic part of baton can serve as a based system for putting a special tactical mirror which serves for researching of danger places as well as it gives possibility of pyrotechnic control the little enterable buildings’ parts or a car chassis of suspicious vehicle.
Instead of a standard end piece it can be used performer diode torch on the end of baton. It endures difficult usage; it is durable against bats and water. Stamina of illumination is several tenths hours. It is possible light with it (eventually shine a potential opponent) and at the same time have the baton promptly prepared for prompt penetrative usage.
Especially for members of safety branches it has developed special plastic case with elongated lifting system. The self-locking construction allows prompt drawing without risk of loosing the baton by the general action.

As we can see this police tactical set – baton, case, torch and mirror has been exposed to intensive testing. We’ve been inquisitive how this special set has passed in difficult conditions which imitate the most aspirate multi immoderate aspirations of general usage. The comprehensive appraisal, which sometimes includes really so very destructive experiments, has been provided by the collective of several experts from different branches of safety sector. However in the start nobody has believed to very sensation, the results have been more than satisfactory. Not only baton, but also the accessories can be therefore commended to everybody who wants to have some instruments by his/her difficult and dangerous office at disposal which are not a failure. He/she can confide in it and maybe he/she has sometimes thanked it for his/her health and life in the extreme situation…
