Yes, Taser® C2s are going away as stock is sold out, however your C2 will still have parts available, because the new Taser® Bolt uses the same Cartridges, Batteries, and Holster size. The owners manual is the same and when I compared the product specifications, they are the same. All of the below information still applies.
You may have heard of the Taser®, because many police departments issue each officer one to carry on duty. I worked at a California police department for 40 years and when the Taser® became available, we were one of the first departments to issue them. They became an addition to tools we already carry, including pepper spray and as an alternative to using our firearm. They continue to save a number of injuries and lives of officers and suspects with no lasting harmful effects. But you may have questions about the Taser® C2 and Bolt, because they were designed for the citizen to use.
In police studies, the TASER® C2/Bolt has a higher instant incapacitation rate than a 9mm hand gun. The TASER® C2/Bolt shoots out 2 darts attached to 15 feet of wire. 50,000 volts travels over the wires and over-rides the central nervous system providing incredible takedown power.

The Taser C2/Bolt have a slick design and are much easier to carry. They have the same stopping power as the police models and still combine a traditional stun gun with the ability to shoot and shock an attacker up to fifteen feet away. When an attacker is struck with Taser C2/Bolt darts, they are designed to continue to shock the suspect for 30 seconds.
Only use the Taser® C2/Bolt as a defense weapon. It is recommended that when you shoot the Taser Darts and the shock affects the attacker, you drop the Taser and run away. The cycle energy burst will continue for 30 seconds, giving you ample time to get away. If the Taser is lost as the result of leaving it behind, don't worry. Forward a Police Report, documenting the incident, and Taser Iternational will replace your Taser C2/Bolt Unit.
SAFETY -- The TASER® C2/Bolt can stop a threat up to 15 feet away (4.5 meters), allowing you a safe distance to protect yourself and family from an attacker.
