Smith & Wesson slapper - blackjack
I carried one back in the DAY. The PD I worked at even issued pants with a slap jack pocket sewed into them. The only problem with the slap jack was "proximity" you had to be in close to use it. Then they took them away saying that they caused to much trauma to the offender. Then everyone started using the kel-light. l still have m 18" C-cell flash light, fit perfect in the baton ring. Then they said that was to dangerous to use. The next tool was the PR-24 baton a great tool. Then came the "ASP" a collapsible steel rod. Now, think about going from a piece of leather with lead sewn into it to a Steel Pipe. Some how I don't see the humanity there in.
