With an MP3 player that’s built into a carrying case for the C2, the also-new TASER MPH (Music Player Holster), you can listen to music while you tote your C2 stun gun, also available in “fashion pink” and “red-hot red.” (An incorrect report from the London Telegraph that the MP3 player and TASER are combined into one device will surely start some urban legend.)
