Monadnock manufactures several types of police baton, including traditional straight batons, long riot sticks, side-handle nightsticks including the PR-24, and both friction-locking and mechanically locking telescoping batons.
ASP batons are friction-lock in design, and are opened by swinging the handle forcibly through the air. To close this type, the baton's tip is driven into a hard surface to break the friction. The friction-lock Airweight series (P12 and P16), for plainclothed concealment, was released in 2012.
Batons are also used for non-weapon purposes such as breaking windows to free individuals trapped in a vehicle, or turning out a suspect's pockets during a search (as a precaution against sharp objects). Some people other than law enforcement officers use batons as weapons because of their simple construction and easy concealment.

Stun guns, batons (or prods), cattle prods, shock collars, and belts administer an electric shock by direct contact, whereas Tasers fire projectiles that administer the shock through thin flexible wires. Long-range electroshock projectiles, which can be fired from ordinary shotguns and do not need the wires, have also been developed.
The bean bag round typically consists of a small fabric "pillow" filled with #9 lead shot weighing about 40 grams (1.4 oz). It is fired from a normal 12-gauge shotgun.When fired, the bag is expelled at around 70 to 90 metres per second (230 to 300 ft/s); it spreads out in flight and distributes its impact over about 6 square centimetres (1 sq in) of the target.

A club (also known as a cudgel, baton, bludgeon, truncheon, cosh, nightstick, or impact weapon) is a short staff or stick, usually made of wood, wielded as a weapon or tool [1] since prehistory.
The types of batons show would be strictly illegal everywhere I am aware of with the exception of the expandable baton; By law they must be a UNIFORM diameter, that is the same diameter from the grip to the tip (there’s some play from the grip down, but not much).
