DESCRIPTION​

A common weapon with a big enough following to have its own professional sport. The shock boxing glove is a simple design that embeds light stun pads into the knuckles, palm and finger tips of the user's gloves. It's extremely popular and is produced by various companies all over the galaxy. People use it for self defense, for pranking friends and some authorities prefer it over a stun baton to subdue problematic perpetrators.

Naturally people also experimented with it and figured out that it's remarkably easy to remove the limiters, bumping up the stun capabilities to medium output. Some underground rings prefer this method for illegal fights and it also allows certain groups, such as bounty hunters, to drop bigger targets. But this modification does come at a cost by cutting the number of discharges in half. Users should also be very conscious with the gloves, since electrocuting one's self or someone else with it is a very easy task if one doesn't pay attention to the blue indicator or screen on top of the glove.

LEGALITY​

In its stock form it is completely legal, however removing the limiters is illegal and could result in a fine if discovered.

INTENT​

To provide a more concealable alternative for a non-lethal melee weapon as well as to flesh out the melee category a bit. Credit to @Darasuum for the original write up.
