Comments

Companies, including TBOTECH, do not know who a felon is or not and do not report information about sales to any government agency or anyone else. It's a personal responsibility to adhere to laws and restrictions pertaining to yourself. As a company, we do not sell or ship certain items to states that have restrictions on some of our products. If a person is a felon, then they can ask their parole officer about what is legal for them. Generally speaking, a felon can not have a stun gun but that is determined by the state they reside in. As far as expecting a knock on the door, again, we do not share sales information with any agency. (Nothing in this post is to be regarded as legal advice as we are not lawyers.)

Does a legal seller of stun guns, I have to report who they sold them to? (The Buyer name) recently jumped the gun literally ordered and received a stun gun .somebody mention a felon cannot possess a stun gun. I'm just wondering if I can count on a knock on the door from the government taking me to jail for it?? The seller has my name on a credit card that's enough?? I'd really appreciate a answer I am stressed out that they're going to come get me in trouble?
