Oh yea, I am going trust that these needles will penetrate the bear and if the probes dont launch properly or are not dispersed widely enough you die.

What’s wrong with tranquilize?

I’d rather have a gun. How are those two little prongs gonna make it thru the bears fur?
Range of 35 feet eh. How long does it take a bear to make it across 35 ft? A lifetime.

If it doesn’t work, the user better pray the bear has a sense of humor.

It can temporarily incapacitate mammals like bears and mooseGreat...but I wouldn't want to be the guy doing the "live" test.

Would you trust a taser when confronted with this?

Didn't think so.

Do the math.
Bear is advancing at 25 mph.
Max range of weapon 35 feet.
First shot is ineffective.
How much time does the shooter have to get off the second and third shots?
The whole thing sounds like a green energy concept.
And who’s going to do the product testing in a real-world environment?

"designed to incapacitate larger animals more effectively "
Okay, should it actually work...what do you do next? Handcuff the bear? Read him his rights?

Wasn't there a story on FR a while back about a guy that had a .45 in a bear's mouth (because the bear was eating him) and he fired repeatedly until the bear's mouth kept the slide on the .45 back and out of battery? And then his buddy ran up and shot the bear point blank with a rifle? Several times? And the bear ran off?
And the guy with the .45 (shooting from within the bear's mouth) got torn up pretty badly?
Anybody remember that story?
The tazer guys can KMA. I want a standoff .50BMG round(s).

I was very skeptical of bear spray until I read some hunters endorse it. I heard it was endorsed by the federal bureaucrats who's job it is to protect bears and not people. But if hunters give it an ok, then I would give it a second thought.
This thing I am extremely skeptical. Bear spray has a large canister and a wide cloud. Sounds like a one shot thing. You miss, by-by as other Freepers have said. Fundamentally, weather it or Bear spray works, it should be up to the person to use a gun or not if their life is endanger.

A friend of mine once told me that the best anti-geteatenbyabear device ever created was the simple .22LR pistol. You don’t have to hurt the bear, you only need to have a hunting buddy to shoot in the leg.
