The Net Gun

In China, the "net gun" has become a popular, non-lethal device for catching criminals. This Web site has photos of the net gun being used in China.

The net gun comes in a baton that can be attached to a rifle. When fired, pressurized air in the baton shoots out a net that surrounds the person at whom it is fired, preventing the person's escape. The range of the net gun is said to be about 30 feet or so, and it is also reusable.

The net gun is promoted as a safe, convenient, affordable method for police or other authorities to catch criminals and control crowds.
